The one big thing I love about Joe Hill is that he uses a different last name than his father. He could easily have let it be known that he is Stephen Kings son and skate his was to fame. But he did it the right way in my opinion.
No. Joe Hill used to write graphic novels years ago and that is how I discovered him. But I am surprised I never put two and two together. I’m a big King fan, and on the majority of his book jackets he includes the name of his family. One of the names being Joe Hillstrom King ?
By the way, I hope everyone on here who loves Joe Hill has read Locke and Key, his comic book series. Easily the best thing he’s written, probably the best thing he will write.
Love Joe Hill! Have not read this one.
It is a book of four novellas. Every story is outstanding!
Will have to read ASAP!
I have it but haven’t started it yet. Maybe I should move it up higher in my TBR pile?
I would if I were you. Each story was better than the one before it.
Awesome! Thanks :).
Almost done the first story and loving it!! He sure has his dad’s talent doesn’t he? ?
@Cindy, yes does!
Love Joe Hill. Having a hard time getting going on this one. Four chapters in.
Maybe it will grow on you soon ?
I haven’t read it yet. But it’s on my tbr for sure.
When you do read it I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
Thanks! Me too!
I listened to the audiobook and loved it!
Wasn’t it great? I thought the narrator of “Loaded” was spot on!
Yes!

Which must be why you know his pedigree, right?

I just finished the second story and it really messed me up.
The second one is Loaded, right?
Now I have to read this!
Yeah, I just had a baby so some of the… content there was really upsetting ?
Yeah, I get that
I’m not used to being so fragile but now that I’m a Dad! ??

Absolutely agree with you on that!
I forgot that I bought it! Haha! Pre-ordered it months ago. Thanks for the reminder!
But overall, I LOVE Joe Hill!!!
Awesome! I hope you enjoy it!
I loved it. It was too short!
Yes!
It’s my next read. I’ve not been disappointed by his books yet. I think he’s a terrific writer. The Fireman is fabulous.
I liked The Fireman a whole lot!
