Hi, everybody. There are lots of SK story collections, but in this thread I'm interested in the short story collections (as opposed to novella or long story collections). I dug out the TOC's on ISFDB, and the following five books appear to be his major short story collections: Night...

Hello again folks! After a long hiatus, I've come back to seek your help. I am doing a master's thesis to become a Master of the Arts in English, and after several abortive attempts I have decided to try and turn The Stand into my focus. The question for you is: Are there versions of the...

I heard this week that Stephen King isn't putting his new book out on e platform. I'm surprised, given his support of ebooks in the past. Interested to hear some thoughts on this.

Probably common knowledge around these parts, but just in case, there's a great blog on the Guardian newspaper page (go to culture, then, books) in which James Smythe re-reads and discusses all of King's books in order. It's bringing back some great memories from the 70's and 80's :) Would...

I don’t read much Stephen King, and while I like a few of his books a lot (in particular, Salem’s Lot and The Shning), I wouldn’t call myself an avid fan. I’ve always liked his non-fiction best of all: On Writing and Dance Macabre are two of the best books about writing that I’ve ever seen...

Has Stephen King ever written a WWII story? I Googled it and got nothing. I searched the bibliography here but don't know what all the stories are about. If he hasn't, has he ever said why? or if he plans to?

My wife is an avid Stephen King fan. She reads and re-reads every book by the author. She has been obsessed by passages in the 'The Drawing of the Three, Dark Tower II, The Prisoner'. My spouse is practically a cartographer. She is ever-aware of the direction that she/we are headed, so she can...

SPOILERS Discussion for The Wind Through the Keyhole It took me about three days to read. I liked how he threaded a story within a story, and another story within that one [insert stupid Inception joke]. I enjoyed both of them, "The Wind Through the Keyhole" more so than "The Skin-Man", but...

Nice list here: http://www.vulture.com/2012/04/ranking-all-62-stephen-king-books.html Of course, like all lists, every person has their own. And here is mine: The Dark Tower Series - I can't rank these with his other work. This is my Lord of the Rings, A Song of Ice and Fire, Harry Potter...

Under the Dome by Stephen King

I just wanted to share my opinion on this book. Not that any of you care; nor should you. I thought it was AWESOME! I have a fetish, it would seem, for books written on the craft. I have read his Memoir on the Craft, John Gardener's Notes to Young Writers, a few others, and several prose...

Whilst I am not a big fan of King's work, I came across this and thought, for those who are, and who afford it, some might be interested in this: http://www.pspublishing.co.uk/the-wind-through-the-keyhole-slipcase-a-dark-tower-novel-by-stephen-king-1218-p.asp

As you can tell from my title I don't get the aura Mr. King as got as a writer, I don't think he is particularly good. I'm in the middle of reading the first dark tower book, and to say I am finding it hard to relate to the gunslinger would be a understatement. This is my first venture into...

Just saw this on wikipedia and it looks interesting, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Sleep_%28novel%29 Seems like this could be the name of the book for the sequel to the Shining.

Hey folks, Just got this with my SK newsletter: http://www.stephenking.com/promo/bag_of_bones_tv/preview/medium.html

Awesome. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/stephen-king-shining-dr-sleep-240853

for the new Dark Tower novel. http://www.amazon.com/dp/1451658907/?tag=brite-21

I am currently reading this book and am enjoying it! It's an old illustrated version (illustrated by Michael Whelan) that I picked up at a second hand book shop ages ago. It's very tatty and on the verge of falling apart, but it's a great read. His characters sometimes interact with each other...

I just read Salem's Lot for the very first time I recommend it to everyone. I loved it and could not put it down. Just my own personal opinion. :)

:confused:I don't know where else to put this thread.:confused: I am Looking for books by Stephen King, not titles of the books I know those, the actual books. You can read the thing below or just know that I am looking for really, really, really, cheap or even free copies of: Salem's Lot...
