I want to preface with a point I’m going to come back to, and which I find myself repeating often as a bookseller who curates the Horror section at my local Barnes & Noble: Stephen King is so much more than a horror writer. Some of his best, most enduring works transcend genre, whether grounded dramas or human stories with mere touches of the supernatural. His newest book, FAIRY TALE, is one I’ve pointed people to recently, saying “So, I know you just said you don’t read Stephen King because his work scares you, but trust me—this isn’t a horror novel.” And then I usually go on about how wonderful of a book it is, a love-letter to myths, fairytales, and the magic of storytelling, which also happens to be a fine example of pure, enchanting storytelling itself.
