Mr king!
I have read everyone of your books. I am 51 and been reading your stuff since fourth grade. I had watched the film of Firestarter years ago so I skipped this book until now. Wow! I’m so glad I didn’t miss this excellent story because it’s now my favorite. Your storytelling was just wonderful and I literally felt like I could see every scene in my head. Yours words painted the pictures so beautifully. This is now my favorite book. Thank you for your storytelling.
Riveting and exciting!
