In this week's review, I examine what very well be one of King's greatest of all time, Under the Dome.  Not to be confused with the CBS series, or the plot of the Simpon movie, the novel is a masterful examination of small towns and politics on both the global and municipal scale.

Just recently, I examined a novel that King claims is his best, a claim that I strongly disagree with.   However, it does serve as half of an effective one-two punch that is followed by Duma Key.  What does Stephen King have to say about fatherhood, fathers and daughters, second chances and artistry?  Find out this week in the Stephen Kingcast!

With Lisey's Story, King published what he calls his best novel. That's a bold statement to make.   While one can certainly see why it would be his most personal, does Lisey's Story really hold up to the mantle of being his best?

The novel Cell is an interesting zombie tale that takes your cellphone and turns it into the most dangerous object ever put in human hands (sadly, you don't need a Stephen King story for that statement to be true). While the novel itself is uneven zombie thriller with a sci-fi edge, it still has the beating heart of King as a storyteller.  What happens when you keep the story but lose the storyteller? You become a shambling corpse of a movie starring John Cusak and Samuel L Jackson.   As always, write in at stephenkingcast@yahoo.com Follow me on Instagram, Tik Tok, Facebook and Bluesky.

With Cell, critics claimed this was Stephen King's return to horror. What we have certainly sounds like classic King: an every day object/concept spun into a nightmarish tale.   However, released in the midst of the early 2000s zombie wave that began with 28 Days Later, Dawn of the Dead, Shaun of the Dead, does Cell really have that much to say?  Find out this week in the Stephen Kingcast!

In this week's episode, I begin the final stretch of our journey to the Dark Tower.  With the publication of the Wolves of the Calla, King began an unprecedented back-to-back-to-back book release that completed the long running series.  The first Dark Tower novel since near death experience, Wolves of the Calla stands as a dividing line that marks the different eras of the Dark Tower series.  How does it hold up?  Is it worthy of the previous entries?  Are you ready, everyone?  The end begins now.
