Joyland - Stephen King

                                                                           Mr King sir,

Joyland
Oh captain, My captain...

There has always been something more urgent, more pressing.

I should be ashamed of myself leaving this to gather dust.

A joy to read, no breaks it just flows from beginning to end. Is there nothing that this man can't turn his hand to?

Early 70's static carnival. A summer job that brought together friends, and unearthed a series of murders of young girls.

Tied to the King-a-Verse via one of his favourites, the seeing/sight that you find in the shining, the dark tower to name but a few.

Compelling it draws you in, the style and content may not be normal. But, this is one of a hell of a slam dunk.

Give it a try, where the air is rare

 

Orange City - Lee Goldberg

Dystopia never tasted so good.

As far as management goes, the man, is pretty high up. To match his height, he is also a Grade A Sociopath.

Trying to run a Statuesque city, he toys with its citizens as the whim passes over him.

He got his kicks drugging and amputating at free will.

His greatest feet, hadn't even been released and there was massive demand for it. What was it? Simplicity, soda pop.

Different flavours, different moods, always thirsty for them.

One man's journey, against tyranny.
