KING STEPHEN : EYES OF THE DRAGON (Signet)

Great>.

Very different from his other books; a pleasure to read!

Kig wrote this for his preadolescent daughter at the time. While I didn't pass it down to my kids at that age, it is still a great novel.

Loved it, so much fun!

It was a good concept, but King has a way with... taking an idea and running with is a bit too far. the way the plot transitioned seemed inconsistent to me. There were moments where the book would seem like logical one, then suddenly something fantastic and out-of-the-ordinary would occur just at the author's convenience to move the plot along, which leads me to say the book...more

There were moments where the book would seem like logical one, then suddenly something fantastic and out-of-the-ordinary would occur just at the author's convenience to move the plot along, which leads me to say the book isn't structured enough; as if it were written in one sitting, then handed to an editor to sell millions of copies since it has Mr.King's name slapped across it. The book was very much an enjoyable read, but I would not call it a favorite, and that King has written much better pieces than this. 4 stars, overall.   hide

one of his older works, but compelling nonetheless. i think this work is the most entrenched in the fantasy genre of all his works. i mean, dragons, castles, kings and prince, wizards? it's all the most expected characters to populate high fantasy... but seriously, this fantasy yarn is unlike any other, mainly because this world, as with all of his other works, are tied to his dark tower...more

If you like tales of murder, the supernatural, and noble quests, this is for you! It is not a story about dragons, though the title is explained. Instead you will find a story of two brothers pitted against each other at the whims of an evil that has been underestimated until now. Take a front row seat as King shows he is a master of more than just horror.

Better than I expected. Easy to read, interesting and with great characters. I really enjoyed reading it.

one of his most underrated/known about pieces, imo.
