Eyes of the Dragon Stephen King Book Review

Again, it's been a while, because I had spring classes and issues with friends. But here we go with yet another Stephen King novel! WOOT!
Anyways, I've got a lot on my reading plate. I'm currently trying to finish the Crying of Lot 49 (which I probably wouldn't do justice with a book review, since I still have no idea what is going on but the characters are superb). I've started Swan Song by Robert McCammon. It is basically his version of "The Stand". Just reading maybe twenty pages I can tell he's a damn good writer. He's much more of a rival to King then Koontz.

Good review, I really wanna read this.

[Savior20061]

@SalemsShift It's a pretty good book to start Stephen King with, as long as you keep in mind that it isn't what he is known for.

[SalemsShift]

@Savior20061 Well I've read Different Seasons and The Shining. He's been known to write some that he isn't known for. Like Gerald's Game.

[Savior20061]

@SalemsShift Gerald's Game was another good read. The only book of his so far that I really haven't liked was Lisey's Story. The pacing for that book was actually worse than The Tommyknockers at times.

Good job thanks for the video I won't mind checking that out

[Savior20061]

@darkman1993cure No problem.

[Savior20061]

@MsMordem No problem, it was a pleasure.

[CombatOasis]

@Savior20061 ...ah, ok. That makes more sense. ..."Lady in the Water, but without the fail" made me laugh, b/c you are exactly right about that

[TheCrabby09]

@CombatOasis Like they could go between Time zones and parallel universes and stuff like that. The Dark Tower is in another dimension

[Savior20061]

@CombatOasis I believe in the Dark Tower books, the character go in and out of different worlds. This makes sense because the worlds in SK's books are all based around the Dark Tower world. But as for Eyes of the Dragon, I believe it is an ENTIRELY standalone book. It was based on a story King told to his children. Kind of like Lady in the Water, but without the fail.
