This took well know lore, legends and fairytales and put them in his own unique interpretation in this world of the other that just so happens to be down mr bowditches well.
It deals with morals, good deeds, grief and patience and so much more. I loved seeing our MC Charlie connect with both radar and mr bowditch as well as getting to travel with him through his journey and experiences in this other land.
Overall it was unexpected from king but an enjoyable read nonetheless. A unique take on so many well know fairytales and legends alll wrapped up into one creative interpretation that brought them all together in a unique story of its own.

I just kept reading because I was worried the dog was going to die ! I’m unsure if that’s good because of the hook or bad because it was the only reason after
