    Exploring Where Savage Things Grow...



    With thousands of horrific pages published since the first lines of Carrie, Stephen King's gripping perennial fiction has earned him the rightful appelation "The Master of Modern Horror." The Stephen King Illustrated Companion takes a critical look at King's most iconic works and reads between the lines to uncover the personal influences and demons as reflected in each monster, epidemic, and depraved character. Unseen family photographs and 16 pieces of previously unpublished ephemera--such as handwritten manuscript notes, typed early drafts, lengthy journal entries, and doodles for King's college newspaper--complete this tangible tour. Packed with fascinating biographical details, literary interpretations, and personal memorabilia, The Stephen King Illustrated Companion is a must-have addition to any true fan's library.
  • Barnes & Noble finally has the correct author page on their web site, but still list the book as being "out of print," when in fact it hasn't yet been published.
  • According to my publisher, the book should be in B&N's warehouses by September 25th, at which point it will be available for order online. It should be in stores with a couple of weeks after that.
  • The B&N page is live again, with a price and a shipping time of 24 hours.
