Fairy Tale by Stephen King

Product Details

About the Book

Charlie Reade looks like a regular high school kid — great at baseball and football, a decent student — but he carries a heavy load. His mom was killed in a hit-and-run accident when he was ten, and grief drove his dad to drink. Charlie learned how to take care of himself, and his dad. Then, when Charlie is seventeen, he meets a dog named Radar and his aging master, Howard Bowditch, a recluse in a big house at the top of a big hill, with a locked shed in the backyard from which strange sounds sometimes emerge.

Charlie starts doing jobs for Mr. Bowditch and loses his heart to Radar. Then, when Bowditch dies, he leaves Charlie a cassette tape telling a story no one would believe — and the keys to a parallel world called Empis, a realm of magic, monsters, and danger where good and evil are locked in an epic battle, with sprawling landscapes, grand palaces, and ominous dungeons. As Charlie journeys into Empis to save his beloved dog and the world beyond, he confronts the mythic roots of storytelling itself, in a magnificent and terrifying tale where a heroic boy — and his dog — must lead the fight.
