The Dark Tower VIIThe Dark Tower
By Stephen King
All good things must come to end. Constant Listener, and not even this
author can write a story that goes on forever. The tale of Ronald Deschain's
relentless quest for the Dark Tower has, the author fears, sorely tried the
patience of those who have followed it from its earliest chapters. But
attend to it a while longer, if it pleases you, for this volume is the last,
and often the last things are best.

Dreamcatcher

Once upon a time, in the haunted city of Derry (site of the classics It and
Insomnia), four boys stood together and did a brave thing. Certainly a good
thing, perhaps even a great thing. Something that changed them in ways they
could never begin to understand.
Twenty-five years later, the boys are now men with separate lives and
separate troubles. But the ties endure. Each hunting season the foursome
reunite in the woods of Maine. This year, a stranger stumbles into their
camp, disoriented, mumbling something about lights in the sky. His
incoherent ravings prove to be disturbingly prescient. Before long, these
men will be plunged into a horrifying struggle with a creature from another
world. Their only chance of survival is locked in their shared past -- and
in the Dreamcatcher.

From A Buick 8
By Stephen King
The state police of Troop D. in Statler, Pennsylvania, have kept the
mysterious, vintage Buick Roadmaster caged in Shed B out in back of
the barracks ever since 1979, when Troopers Ennis Rafferty and Curtis
Wilcox answered a call about its driver gone missing from a gas
station just down the road. Mostly it sleeps (that's one way of
putting it, anyway), and over the years the troop has absorbed its
mystery as part of the background to their work. But even as it sleeps,
it breathes - inhaling a little bit of this world, exhaling a little
bit of whatever world it came from...until the fateful day when its
terrifying secrets are finally revealed.
