REVIEW

.
.

I really wanted to give it 5 stars, but I really didn't love the poetry and I'm sure it's someone else's taste, it's just not mine. 
.
The story's however you get lost in, and take days to come out of, you are so fully immersed you find yourself locked in on every word.
.
A stunning novelist, as always King, you are a bright spark for all of horror and novel writing. Worth every single minute.
