Hans | 66 comments I'm reading too much parallely right now. Just finished Full Dark, No Stars and am still craving some Stephen King, but I also started The Girl And The Stars by Mark Lawrence and Black Tie Required by Craig Schaefer. Decided to take on the Night Shift for my King cravings because I can read one short story and then continue with something else.

I love Four Past Midnight. The Langoliers is one of my favorite stories ever.

Pavel Tsekov | 21 comments Yep, my wife commented it in a similar way: ‘The best book of Steven King’. Let’s see -:)

Needful Things is pretty epic. What did you think of Revival?

Derrick | 974 comments Quick question: how important is it that I read Salem's Lot before reading Wolves of the Calla?


message 7834: by Charles (new)

Charles | 96 comments I wouldn't say it was absolutely necessary to read Salem's Lot first, however I'm the type of person that loves to know a characters full story and motivations, so for me I would highly recommend reading it first.

Have you read , or are you going to read, all of Sandman, or are you just dabbling?


message 7837: by Derrick (new)

Derrick | 974 comments Well damn I've already started Wolves of the Calla but a slight change of plans could be in order....


message 7838: by Charles (new)

Charles | 96 comments Salem's Lot is a pretty quick read, so it shouldn't slow you down too much.


message 7839: by Tek (last edited May 18, 2020 12:46PM) (new)

Tek | 97 comments It's not incredibly important...but the character Father Callahan gets introduced and his whole backstory is fleshed out in Salems Lot. I don't remember how much Wolves gives you a rundown of his past but I know they go into events that take place after Salems Lot. Salems Lot is one of Kings best tho, imo. Whether you read it before or after, id definitely recommend doing so.


message 7840: by Tek (new)

Tek | 97 comments I'm moving pretty nicely along in Empire of the Summer Moon by SC Gwyne,

Its the story of the rise and fall of the Comanches. Its incredibly interesting so far and reads very smoothly. Ive always been interested in the American West tho so unless it sucked I was probably gonna enjoy it.

So one of the key characters in wolves of the calla is also a principal in Salem's Lot. But unlike other revised characters, his backstory isn't as vital to Wolves. Also, and I'm not sure how many others feel this way, but as good as Wolves is. Salem's Lot is a slightly better book (IMHO). But if you have a full head of steam from Wizard and Glass, I'd say dive into Wolves and enjoy. (view spoiler)

Thank you Nick. I was really on the fence about it all day. I think I'll stay the course and finish Wolves of the Calla. Then I'll for sure jump right into Salem's Lot. I don't know how I've not read Salem's Lot yet anyway lol.
Also thanks to everyone else who chimed in on my question today. I truly value all of your opinions.

I have noticed that. I just stop it by scrolling to the bottom real quick since that's typically where I'm commenting/replying anyway.

Christina | 2 comments Rereading Second Child by John Saul. This was the very first 'adult novel' I ever read at about 13. I went from Babysitters Club to horror without knowing it. The description made me think it was a teen book. We were visiting family at a beach house and there were two giant bookshelves full of books to choose from. I stayed up all night reading. Even though I'm using my Kindle, I can still smell the salt on the pages. It's a lovely trip down memory lane.
