This was the first thing of Stephen King's that I ever read I was 13 or 14 years old and this will be the first book of his I've ever read a second time

I've always credited Cycle as THE ground zero of me getting into drawing. Berni Wrightson was the fuck'n man.

How does the Cycle of the Werewolf novel compared to the movie?

It's a novella only about 90 pages I think and half are illustrations. Very cool illustrations though.

Starting Desperation

Awkwardly, but not in a bad way. The novella was originally just short stories based around each full moon of the month for a calendar, with Bernie's illustrations. When King got to July, a plot finally started to develop (Marty is finally introduced), and we start having reoccurring characters

Kind probably adapted the novella the best way he could into a screenplay though, and changing the eye situation from firecrackers to the bottle rocket is a genius move.

I think this will end up being a great one and just read a cool other novel connection

Finished Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson. It's a novella only 90 pages. I liked the story, its a bit tamer than the story I know from films but still entertaining. B+

Next up Firestarter.

Just finished Desperation. Outstanding book

Firestarter so far is fantastic. I've also started the new Hunger Games novel from Suzanne Collins "Sunrise on the Reaping" audiobook.

Been getting back into some historical crime/noir stuff lately.

Five Decembers - James Kestrel
Night Life - David C. Taylor

3 choices for my next King audiobook Fairy Tale, The Outsider and Under the Dome

The first 100 pages of Firestarter have me thinking this will finish very high on my Stephen King novel rankings.

Finished Sunshine on the Reaping and starting Under the Dome. This is a big book
