Bill Hodges wasn't my favorite series, but it was all right. Personally, I enjoy the interconnected Dark Tower references, and it's delightful and hilarious that Stephen King is a character in the Stephen King universe. And I'm glad he stuck around to insert himself (hard to believe that was over twenty years ago)
Wow, it is hard to believe that was over twenty years ago!
Duma Key, right now. Holly, down the road. Subscribed. Dead Zone, favorite. Thank you.
Thanks
Have you considered relaunching your Hylton's Hall of Heroes series?
Great idea - I might just do that!
What's a good book similar to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre story? Also, is that book in and of itself worth reading? I've seen the movies.
Off Season by Jack Ketchum, Kin by Kealan Patrick Burke & Brother by Ania Ahlborn are all very gruesome Texas Chainsaw-type reads. I’m not aware of any actual Texas Chainsaw novels, but those three all have a similar vibe.
Stephen King is entitled to his political opinions and so are his characters. Readers don't have to agree with them in order to enjoy his fiction. Some people are ridiculous.
You fail to recognise that people read fiction to escape the reality of real life.
That involves politics, race, religion, war, and other issues that we have strong feelings for and against. Fiction is an amazing space for discussion of everything else that doesn’t include our reality it’s a form of escaping and it’s why media games films an any other form of entertainment is exactly that! To call people ridiculous because they’re annoyed that real life issues such as Covid being preached to us ans trump being constantly dogged at is a bully Tactic and will offend people and if you don’t understand that then your very very close minded I’m afraid.
@@jordanmckee4970 People read for all kinds of reasons, *including* escapism. Some read to entertain themselves, and don't mind to see the world they live in reflected on the page. Some read to see things from another point of view. Some read to process their feelings. And there are a lot more.
The people who get annoyed at the references to reality or because they don't agree with the author's politics have every right to feel that way; they *don't have the right* to prevent others from talking or reading about them.
@@TheJFGB93 I never said they don’t or do have any right to feel a certain way it just amazes that people are so ignorant about things. Whether for or against. That’s all I’m saying dude.
@@jordanmckee4970 What you are describing is what conservatives often ridicule among liberals as being a snowflake who wants a safe space. Fiction is used for escape but also can be used to grapple with real world opinions and problems. It strikes me as odd that anyone would expect a horror novel to be a 'safe space' for them, politically.
@@GRWelsh7 cry about it
The problem isn't the political content in the books, it's SK's obsession with Trump. In Billy Summers he is literally mentioned almost 20 times. Do you want to write a fiction book with political touches or a political book with fiction touches? We want stories not a copy of your Twitter wall.
