STEPHEN KING: UNCOLLECTED, UNPUBLISHED
We are proud to announce this book has been nominated for a Bram Stoker Award for SUPERIOR ACHIEVEMENT IN NON-FICTION by the Horror Writers Association (see www.horror.org)!
99 Dark Secrets from the World of Stephen King
The most informative look yet at the dark secrets of the Stephen King world – 48 tales by the master of horror that have never been included in a King collection; and 51 stories that have never been published.
With unprecedented access to Stephen King’s archives at the University of Maine and the ‘rediscovery’ of fourteen previously unknown King works the authors present a compelling tour of the Stephen King you’ve never read.
From novels to short stories, screenplays to poems this book is undoubtedly the most comprehensive gathering of information about Stephen King’s fiction ever compiled.
Bonus Feature: Two New Works by Stephen King
Stephen King: Uncollected, Unpublished contains the first publication of two previously unpublished King works:
An entire chapter from King’s lost novel Sword in the Darkness – Chapter 71 is a classic King horror story set in the pre-war woods of Maine, a study in love, madness and loss. ‘As a stand alone effort this tale would represent one of the top ten of King’s short stories’ – Rocky Wood.
Also: a rare King gem – the poem Dino.
The Book for Every King ‘Constant Reader’ and Fan
The result of six years intensive research Stephen King: Uncollected, Unpublished includes a complete Bibliography of all King’s fiction and non-fiction; a study of over 100 works King has revised for republication (there are two versions of The Green Mile); reveals the five great sweeping ‘Realities’ into which all King fiction falls, including the classic Dark Tower worlds; and reveals the works that even King has lost over the years!
Lead author Rocky Wood is one of the world’s leading King authorities and visited King’s home state of Maine twice researching this book. With unprecedented access to material from sources including King’s private papers at the University of Maine the authors have created the ultimate Guide to the Lost World of Stephen King. This book even includes practical advice on finding and reading these lost 99 works!
This amazingly thorough and incredibly detailed book provides the only look that most King fans - even the most ardent - will ever get at unpublished works in King's archives. It also explores the variations - sometimes considerable - in King works that have been published more than once. Enjoyable, illuminating reading and a valuable resource.
