eyesofthedragon

pick

It took me some time to get into this one because there was not enough dragon and it was not a typical Stephen King. But it is written like a fairy tale and I appreciated the subtleties of its special brand of wisdom and humor. I liked the ending the best and would like a follow-up adventure with some of the redeemed characters. #Eyesofthedragon #LosersClub #StephenKing @DGRachel

BookBelle84 This was the first King book I ever read and still must favourite! 5y

DGRachel I agree that there is a serious dearth of dragon in a book that features the word in its title. 😉 5y

DGRachel And that‘s a really cool cover, btw. I haven‘t seen that one before. Makes me want to replace my copy. 😆 #coverenvy (edited) 5y

LeslieO This was the one he wrote so his kids could read it. 5y

BookwormAHN I love this book. When I first read it about 20 yrs ago I didn't realize King wrote fantasy and originally bought it because it had the word dragon in the title 🐲 5y

DGRachel This was the first adult fantasy I ever read and probably only the second fantasy novel. I loved that this was not what I expected from King. Was it unexpected for anyone else? Some of the foreshadowing was a bit heavy-handed, but I loved how Peter used the napkins and the dollhouse. I‘m dying to know what the rest of you thought of this book! 🖤💚 (edited) 5y

BookwormAHN Using the napkins and the dollhouse was brilliant. I had forgotten that part and really enjoyed reading it. 5y

DGRachel @BookwormAHN I love that you picked it up because of the title! 😆😆 I first read it 30 years ago and chose it because it wasn‘t his standard horror fare. I had previously attempted and bailed on both Pet Sematary and IT. 5y

Karkar I really enjoyed this book. It was the first time I read this one. I wish he would do more of these. 5y

DGRachel @Karkar I agree. 💖💖 5y

SiriuslyWeasley It is long past time I revisited this one. I just loved it! 5y

DGRachel @thereadingowlvina @SiriuslyWeasley YAY! I had completely forgotten about it, and I don't have space in my reading plan for this month or really for next month, but I've got to make space. It's been forever since I reread it - much too long. 5y

BookwormAHN This is a great one 💚 5y

Karkar So excited to read this one. I have not read it before. 5y

JulAnna I am excited to re-read this one. It is one of his that I only read once, a long time ago. I will have to go into my attic and find it in my SK box! 5y
