Product description

Review

“Thankfully, unlike most writers, King actually is funny when he intends to be.” -- Globe and Mail (Toronto)

“King’s Thumps Dreadfulwater is a marvelous character . . . any of King’s Dreadfulwater novels will take you right out of your reading chair and into the action.” -- Globe and Mail (Toronto)

“King’s books are filled with mischief and sly humour, but his words always manage to reveal some hidden truth about life which makes you look at the world in a slightly different way than you did prior to reading his work. Even his mystery stories are more than what they look like on the surface and 
Obsidian is no exception.”  -- Blogcritics.org --This text refers to the paperback edition.
