    Exactly what I needed
  

*by J***B on Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2022*

This book was exactly what I needed. I was trying to find a good fantasy novel and was let down by Eragon, couldn’t get into Miss Peregrines Home for Peculiars, and decided to hold off on Dragonlance Chronicles until winter. This book was an incredible fantasy/road trip/sci fi story with Medieval and horror elements that captivated me from the beginning. As a long time King fan I always toyed with the idea of reading this novel but (admittedly) never did until I found out the creators of Stranger Things were developing it into a series. You can definitely see that those guys took a lot of inspiration from King, and in this book in particular in regards to the upside down. Personally, having read at least 40 King novels in my life, I could tell the difference between the Straub chapters and the King chapters. Straub seems to have a penchant for long, sometimes overly so, details of landscapes and surroundings. King’s trademark dialogue and grimy characters show through more than ever within this contrast. It got a little sluggish around pages 450 to 600 or so but then it picks right back up and doesn’t let off. Wolf is also one of the greatest literary characters of all time, right here and now. Can’t wait to read Black House to find out how Jack forgot all of this incredible journey. Those looking for ties to the Dark Tower may find a few fun Easter eggs here and there but some may go over the heads of those who didn’t complete the journey to the beam.

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2024*

Love it. Read through and you’ll see all the sly references to the DT series. Most from a new perspective for me. I was totally sucked into the story and the idea of the territories and the ability to move from here to there.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Long but there were rich moments
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2024*

I’m a novice reader but, this book was the longest book I’ve ever read. This is my 4th King book. Try to stay away from books that are movies. I was just proud that I got through 900 plus pages but there were rich moments.The main character goes through a lot of turmoil to get to his end goal while traveling in another world. He meets a lot of different characters some good and a lot bad. Great meaning behind it as well.I’d say for me it was too long for my taste, great moments.
