Never give up hope.

Rating: 7/10 (26 May 2008)

Bottom line: Never give up hope. Whatever struggles you have, no matter the incredible odds stacked against you... never stop believing in yourself. You don't need any frills, spin, fairytale or hocus-pocus to get by; to live your life. All that's needed is your own belief in who and what you are. What a kick in the b*lls, what a smack in the jaw as you're left open-mouthed grabbing for some sense of what has just rolled itself over you. It's the ending that makes you see the whole reason you've just let yourself be taken on this journey by King, the ending leaves you breathless, desperate, head shakingly shattered. Believe, don't ever let go of what makes you live, that force that gets you out of bed in the morning.
