I am a long time "Constant Reader" so I already look forward to anything Stephen Kind does. Still, I didn't much like his last outing (Mile 81 single) so I'm happy to say I enjoyed this story. The couple of illustrations actually added to the fun. I have not read anything by Joe Hill and I think after this I will try to see what I think of him. I'm always a little hesitant when it comes to family members following a famous parent. I also rarely read an authors "debut" work. I do understand that this is not the first thing Joe Hill has written. I'm just making a point about my own reading habits. The family members are rarely as good or as dedicated as the original writer in the family and first time authors tend to over reach on the first novel. However, there are exceptions and I will see if this son of the master can hold my attention. Looking forward to The Wind Through the Keyhole and now maybe there is another writer to watch on the way up.
