    Great book!

    I love this book. Steven King is one of my favorite authors. I read it years ago, but I wanted it in a hardcover to add to my collection.

    One Of My Favorite Books Bar None

    The Talisman is one of my favorite books from Stephen King and co-author Peter Straub. It's an interesting and exciting mix of scifi, horror and fantasy that centers around a young boy named Jack Sawyer and his quest to save his mother (the Queen of The B's, "b" movies that is) life. Jack's quest takes him across the country and into another world entirely, a place called the Territories, a place that is hauntingly familar to a much younger Jack Sawyer, a Jack whose father still lived, whose mother was still well and whose "Uncle" (in name only) was already evil. The territories is a place of great beauty and wonder but also of great danger and evil, a world where Jack is persued by his Uncle's evil "twinner" and a pack (literally) of his henchmen...werewolves. Noone and nothing is ...

    All for the Talisman

    The only books by King that have moved & impacted me more than The Talisman (and later Black House) are the Dark Tower Books. The Talisman is very lightly connected to the DT Series (Black House is even more so) with the concept of multiple worlds/universes and the the way they effect each other. Second only to the Gunslinger himself, Jack, the Talisman's lead male, is one of King's most interesting characters (at least I think so). Jack's story is one that has been often told by many others. The Talisman is a classic boy takes on a journey to become a man and save the world type story, but here King and Straub do an excellent job. The Talisman is a wonderful, heart warming story of a boy's journey on what seems to be an impossible quest for a child his age, all set in a often dreary ...

    read this thick book in 2 days !! Excellent!!

    I bought this book since a friend of mine had said it was one of Stephen King's and it wasn't keep-all-the-lights-on scary. I read it in 2 days and this book isn't thin!! I loved how the boy could slide into different worlds that where the same yet different that ours. All on his trip from the east coast to the west in his search for the tailsman that can save his dying mother. Thought provoking with all the side slipping into another worlds and how they effect our world too. Wolf was one of my favorite characters. "Protect the herd" :) What object ends up being the talisman is Wonderfully ingenious !! I can't say much without giving things away but it that makes perfect since in a strange way.
