Two Talented Bastids
A funny little thing just happened. King’s character mentions how his father voted for Biden “in the second election”.
That’s such a great example of how things just took such an unexpected turn in 2024.

Rattlesnakes
More of an epilogue to Cujo and Duma Key.
Loved the closure for Donna and Thad. ‘Seeing’ him as a grown up ghost was precious, since he’s one of the more tragic innocent victims of King’s imagination.
Now I have to re-read Duma Key. Forgot all about it.

Finally - a Cujo “sequel”.
I knew I recognized the name Tad as soon as it was mentioned. But it took the mention of his death in a car, and a Saint Bernard for me to understand.
Love it!!!

Willie the Weirdo
Great twist. Did not see that one coming.
Another one that feels like old school Zking writing.

The Fifth Step
A short story that is so reminiscent of his earlier works. The level of chills slowly creeps up right until the explosive ending.
Didn’t find it to be a surprise or a twist, but that only made it better. It felt like the perfect tempo, mood, and character development for a quick Stephen King treat.
