From the beginning, I was hooked! It’s such a King thing to write about a prolific writer, and I loved the nuance he walked coming from that perspective. 

King lulls you into a sense of certainly and rips it away at the drop of a hat (axe!). I couldn’t put it down the last 100 pages, needing to know how he could wrap this up!
