King recently announced that he has a new book hitting the shelves on September 10, 2019. The Institute is 500+ pages and I can’t wait.
A short blurb from the publisher:
In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis’s parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there’s no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents—telekinesis and telepathy—who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and ten-year-old Avery Dixon. They are all in Front Half. Others, Luke learns, graduated to Back Half, “like the roach motel,” Kalisha says. “You check in, but you don’t check out.”
I always look forward to a story from him and I love it when it’s a nice, long one. I don’t know how he manages to release a book at least once a year (this year he released two) but I’m glad he does. Especially in the fall. Always kicks off the RIP Challenge nicely. How thoughtful of him, right?
He’s incredibly prolific.
Stephen King is amazing. He is prolific, but with good stuff!
I love him as a storyteller. I don’t love every book he’s written but I love his enthusiasm for telling a story. He gets so into it. He’s like a kid in the candy store when he sits down to write.
I hope you love it!
Great idea for RIP in the fall, Ti! I’m going to keep that one in mind because I really like the sound of this book. Yay!!
Doesn’t it sound good? Anytime people are locked up with special powers you know it’s gonna be good.
You know we have to read this one at the same time, right? Who else am I going to talk about King with 🙂
As if there is any other way to do it. 😄
I used to read his books as soon as they came out but haven’t read any of them lately. This sounds interesting.
He’s one of the few authors that get me to run out and buy it right away. I often pre-order but sometimes the book is late which irks me so now I either walk in or buy it for my Kindle. Usually walk in because I like to share my copy.
He has plenty of time to write! And according to his writing memoir book, he has tons of stories in the drawer to work on that he “put away.”
I keep waiting for him to write another book about a dog… since he calls his own dog Molly “the thing of evil.” LOL.
He sure is a fast writer. How are you liking Elevation?
I picked Elevation up, and then had to put it down again for another book. I will be picking it up again soon.
Still pumping them out after all these years. This sounds like a good one too!
I really, really hope he has written some books up for us to enjoy when he isn’t around anymore. I can totally see him doing that for his constant readers.
