A review by rlaferney
The Science of Stephen King: The Truth Behind Pennywise, Jack Torrance, Carrie, Cujo, and More Iconic Characters from the Master of Horror by Kelly Florence, Meg Hafdahl

4.0

Meg Hafdahl and Kelly Florence, co-hosts behind one of my favorite podcasts (Horror Rewind) and who have previously explored The Science of Monsters and The Science of Women in Horror turn their attention to Stephen King in their latest book. The Science of Stephen King essentially takes you through the highlights of Stephen King's muli-decade long career while exploring the science behind some of his most terrifying creations. The interviews Meg and kelly conduct with experts are always fun and informative. Whether you're new to King or a constant reader, there is much to learn and to chew in within the pages of this book. And many books I would have dismissed by King, I'm now very eager to read.

I look forward to Meg and Kelly's next book: The Science of Serial Killers!
