Synopsis
The little town of Castle Rock, Maine has witnessed some strange events and unusual visitors over the years, but there is one story that has never been told... until now. There are three ways up to Castle View from the town of Castle Rock: Route 117, Pleasant Road, and the Suicide Stairs. Every day in the summer of 1974 twelve-year-old Gwendy Peterson has taken the stairs, which are held by strong (if time-rusted) iron bolts and zig-zag up the cliffside. At the top of the stairs, Gwendy catches her breath and listens to the shouts of the kids on the playground. From a bit farther away comes the chink of an aluminum bat hitting a baseball as the Senior League kids practice for the Labor Day charity game. One day, a stranger calls to Gwendy: "Hey, girl. Come on over here for a bit. We ought to palaver, you and me." On a bench in the shade sits a man in black jeans, a black coat like for a suit, and a white shirt unbuttoned at the top. On his head is a small neat black hat. The time will come when Gwendy has nightmares about that hat... Journey back to Castle Rock again in this chilling new novella by Stephen King, bestselling author of The Bazaar of Bad Dreams, and Richard Chizmar, award-winning author of A Long December., Journey back to Castle Rock again in this chilling new novella by Stephen King, bestselling author of The Bazaar of Bad Dreams, and Richard Chizmar, award-winning author of A Long December. This book will be a Cemetery Dance Publications exclusive with no other editions currently planned anywhere in the world!

    Great book for a great price. Shipped quickly, but only packed in a poly bag, so the book suffered some mild corner damage in shipping. Aside from that, the book matched the description of its condition and I’m happy overall. Great seller!

    AAAA++++ SELLER!!!! Book was shipped very quickly and item price was also good. My only complaint is the shipping packaging. This book came loosely placed in a plastic bag so I can't tell if the damage to the dust jacket happened in shipping or it was already in that condition. But, as I already stated, the overall price was good so I shouldn't really complain. Overall, I've had positive experience with hpb-ruby so I'd still definitely recommend buying from them.

  • Great Read, had me hooked!

    I was hooked from page 1 till the end. I found that I couldn't put it down. The artwork was good, but the witing was just excellent. I highly recommend this book to any Stephen King readers out there, you won't be disappointed!

  • Classic Steven King.... B+

    Its a very short story.... a mix of 1963 without time travel and Needful things.... Classic Steven King.... a little long winded for a story that didnt go anywhere .... thus the reason for 4 stars instead of 5... he could have built a major novel from this story.... just like joyland it was just a tad disappointing because it could have been a thrilling story with depth and so much more... but it was good for what it was... i mean its Steven King.... everything he writes is a classic as soon as it hits the store.

  • Quick Read that doesn’t disappoint

    Gwendy’s Button Box is a quick read, but captivating all the same. Young Gwendy meets an older gentleman and is given a box. Well, this box can change, alter or destroy with the touch of a button. The story is compelling and I couldn’t wait to see how it ends! Stephen King never disappoints.

  • A MUST READ!

    This is an awesome story by two of the best writer's slice today. The concept is great, character development spot -on, and the plot disables you to put the book down until the last page is read. I know - I read this in one sitting! YOU WILL NOT REGRET BUYING THIS BOOK!
