This is a captivating read for fans of epic fantasy adventures, coming-of-age stories, and electrifying quests, who will be swept away by the tale of an ordinary hero's journey into a magical world of wonder, danger, and self-discovery.

the first 50% was so good and i actually was so interested in it. but after that it dropped off and i'm not going to lie, i dnf'ed it after the fights and after he got out of being captured.
so i'm just rating the book up until that part, so i'd rate it a 4 stars

I tried my best to get through this book, but couldn't. The first half of the book is great, but its very slow paced after that and lost my interest. King is one of my favorite authors, but this book was not for me.

Sin duda no es el mejor libro de Stephen King, empezando porque decidió escribir fantasía que no es precisamente su estilo. Aun así hizo un muy buen trabajo, la primera parte de la historia del señor Bowditch y Charlie es sin duda mi favorita. La típica relación de un adulto y un niño que se hacen amigos en las historias de King nunca hacen falta y no decepcionan.

Sin embargo a la mita de la historia en el proceso en el que Charlie va conociendo el otro mundo si me pareció muy denso y se prolonga demasiado antes de tener alguna aventura realmente interesante. Al final del libro se retoma el ritmo de la historia y se pone muy bueno. Es por esas 300 paginas de historia lenta que realmente me perdió un poco. Probablemente no sea un libro que quiera releer ni recomendar pero tampoco diría que está malo.
