He&#8217;s interested in returning to the Dark Tower someday, probably to tackle <em>The Battle of Jericho Hill<\/em>. He wants to write a story about Franny falling down a well after she and Stu head for Maine. And he hopes to work with Peter Straub on a third book about Jack Sawyer. This one garnered the most interest, especially after a photo emerged of the two of them together following King&#8217;s signing in New York. However, his administrative assistant indicated that this won&#8217;t necessarily happen soon, despite intentions. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bevvincent.com\/messageboard\/discussion\/1449\/rumors-of-a-new-talisman-book-not-so-fast#Item_2\">Read her statement here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you&#8217;re checking out the journey Rich Chizmar is taking at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stephenkingrevisited.com\/\">Stephen King Revisited<\/a>. Starting a couple of weeks ago, he is reading all of King&#8217;s books in publication order, including collections, Bachman books and non-fiction. At a pace of 2-3 books per month, we estimate this endeavor will take around two years. I&#8217;m along for the ride, writing <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stephenkingrevisited.com\/category\/historical-essays\/\">historical background essays<\/a> for each book. There are also guest essayists who&#8217;ll be appearing from time to time. For example, Ray Garton wrote about <em>Carrie<\/em>. This week we took on book #2: <em>&#8216;Salem&#8217;s Lot<\/em>. My essay went up yesterday and Rich&#8217;s today. Check &#8217;em out and come on this incredible journey with us.<\/p>\n<p>We now have the title for King&#8217;s next story collection:\u00a0<em>The Bazaar of Bad Dreams<\/em> will contain twenty stories (not yet identified), and will be published by Scribner in November 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Before that, though, on June 2, 2015, we&#8217;ll have <em>Finders Keepers<\/em>, the follow-up to <em>Mr. Mercedes<\/em>. Today, Scribner released the book&#8217;s description. It&#8217;s fairly detailed, so if you want to read the book unspoiled, you might want to skip it!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWake up, genius.\u201d So begins King\u2019s instantly riveting story about a vengeful reader. The genius is John Rothstein, a Salinger-like icon who created a famous character, Jimmy Gold, but who hasn\u2019t published a book for decades. Morris Bellamy is livid, not just because Rothstein has stopped providing books, but because the nonconformist Jimmy Gold has sold out for a career in advertising. Morris kills Rothstein and empties his safe of cash, yes, but the real treasure is a trove of notebooks containing at least one more Gold novel.<\/p>\n<p>Morris hides the money and the notebooks, and then he is locked away for another crime. Decades later, a boy named Pete Sauberg finds the treasure, and now it is Pete and his family that Bill Hodges, Holly Gibney, and Jerome Robinson must rescue from the ever-more deranged and vengeful Morris when he\u2019s released from prison after thirty-five years.<\/p>\n<p>Not since <em>Misery<\/em> has King played with the notion of a reader whose obsession with a writer gets dangerous. <em>Finders Keepers<\/em> is spectacular, heart-pounding suspense, but it is also King writing about how literature shapes a life\u2014for good, for bad, forever.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>ICYMI, here&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/culture\/features\/stephen-king-the-rolling-stone-interview-20141031\">King&#8217;s interview from Rolling Stone<\/a>.
