Rating: Summary: This is Stephen King? Review: When I first read this book, I was surprised to find that it was not a horror novel. I also read science-fiction and fantasy novels and for a while, I forgot I was reading Stephen King. It takes a good writer to draw you into a story the way King does.
Rating: Summary: !!!The Eyes of the Dragon is worth buying!!! Review: This book is the best. I liked this book the best because Stephen King tells the story real well, and the characters are described good. The book is about a land where dragons still live, and magic is used. Roland the Good is king, and the evil magicain Flagg trys to take over the kindom.
Rating: Summary: A GREAT BOOK! Review: I am 13 years old and this is the first King book I have read and I would have to say that I loved it. Yes, there were a few boring parts in the middle but King does a great job at developing the characters. In case you don't know, the book is about a Kingdom who is about to be shattered by one evil man/magician. His name is Flagg and he will do anything in his power to make the Kingdom of Delain a complete ANARCHY. I would recomend this book to anyone.
Rating: Summary: Typical quality by King Review: A fine effort by King writing in a completely different genre. Entertaining and kept me reading into the night.
Rating: Summary: A Lovely Story Review: A very nice, exciting, gratifying story. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I liked the pictures too. It's the perfect story for kids but grown-ups can enjoy it just as well. Please, Mr. King, do not write a sequel! Nothing could live up to the original. It might make a good movie though.
Rating: Summary: King at his best.... Review: This is by far one of King's finer books...it is wonderfully written and could quite easily be read in a manner suitable for younger children. The plot is rich and it is far from what is normally expected by a King reader. It is written with a tenderness I never though King could never have expressed had this book not been written for his daughter. Enjoyable to the end, with enough left over for young children to dream about.
Rating: Summary: It is a great book Review: It's an excellent book about kings and wizards. If King simplified his story It would be a
classical masterpiece for children.
Of course, he had to censor the sex scenes too.
Rating: Summary: THE best in the world Review: This was the first SK book I have ever read...and, after reading 10, is still my favorite. I think I have read this book at least a dozen times.....several times I have finished this book and immediatly flipped back to the front and started over. I reccomend this book to ANYONE. I think everyone would find something in this book that they will take with them the rest of their lives.
Rating: Summary: You MUST read this book! Review: In this book Stephen King does one of the best performances of his life. The characters are believable, the plot is rich, and it's a lot of fun to read. I've read that a lot of people want him to write a sequel, but did any of you catch on to the fact that The Stand finished the story up? Thomas is Tom Cullen, and Flagg is, well, Flagg. Even if he did think of writing a sequel, it would never do the first justice. The book needs no sequel.
Rating: Summary: A Great Intro to King's other Works Review: Like I said in the Subject line, THE EYES OF THE DRAGON is a wonderful introduction to the world of Stephan King. Just Like the Beautiful illustrations (such a rarity for adult books), the characters are well drawn out and detailed creatively. The ending was so suprising I actually sat there with my mouth wide open. All the way through I was rooting for Peter to clear his name, for Thomas to finally stand up to Flagg, and for Flagg to get his in the end. Mr. King, c'mon! Were dying for a sequel!!
