Description:
Stephen King takes readers on a journey into a magical world in this epic fantasy novel. Seventeen-year-old Charlie Reade inherits a large estate and a dark legacy after befriending and caring for the reclusive Mr. Bowditch. The old man, who hides a secret in a locked shed on his property, leaves Charlie a taped message revealing a portal to a parallel world where good and evil are locked in an ancient battle. Along with his loyal dog Radar, Charlie embarks on a heroic quest into the mysterious realm of Empis, a dying world threatened by a dark entity known as the Ghouls. He encounters fantastical creatures, both benevolent and terrifying, and discovers that the fate of two worlds rests on his shoulders. This book is a blend of classic King horror elements, suspense, and a heartfelt coming-of-age story infused with the spirit of classic fairytales. It explores themes of courage, sacrifice, and the enduring battle between light and darkness. This sixth impression of the first UK edition hardback is a valuable addition for collectors of Stephen King's work and fans of dark fantasy, magical adventure, and epic storytelling.
