[razz]

wow, I've never even HEARD of this.

[Brice]

It's a book of photos of gargoyles along with a nonfiction piece by King. I enjoyed it.

[gsvec]

I enjoyed it, too, Brice, but I only gave it a 2 since there wasn't a lot of SK content. VERY cool gargoyle pics tho!!

[razz]

got a copy you can lend me?

[Brice]

I only have one copy and it was a gift.

How ironic - mine was a gift too! :D

:couple: Wow!


Razz...if I had a spare I'd happily send it on to you. It's a cool oversized book though. You should definitely pick up a copy when you can. :)

[mae]

It can be had for a reasonable price at used books places. Check Bookfinder.com. Myself, I haven't read mine yet, but the photos are great indeed.

[BROWNINGS CHILDE]

Wow! I thought I had seen it all. But I havent seen this
Suprised that I am voting "never read"

[Mr. Rabbit Trick]

This is not a Stephen King book.

meh.

Never read it, never even heard of it.


This is not a Stephen King book.
Tend to agree with you - but It's neither here nor there - not like it's gonna get out of the bracket or anything.

[mae]

It is a Stephen King book. A non-fiction book. And, for the purposes of the poll, it brings a total number of pollable books to an even sixty, which is cool :)

[Heather19]

I've never even heard of this one. I might have to go search for a copy.

[mae]

Sheesh what kind of King fans are y'all? :P

There are two new copies available right now for twenty-two bucks: http://www.bookfinder.com/search/?author=&title=&lang=en&submit=Begin+search&new_used=*&destination=us&currency=USD&binding=*&isbn=0670823074&keywords=&minprice=&maxprice=&mode=advanced&st=sr&ac=qr (good used copies can be had for as little as a dollar)

Hurry!

[Brice]

This is not a Stephen King book.

He did all the writing in my copy of it...which makes it a Stephen King book. :P

Ah well then, it fulfills a noble purpose! :evil:

:lol:

[Daghain]

I had to vote "never read" as well - I've never even heard of it until today.

[Melike]

I haven't read it, too, I was not even aware of its existence. I will look for it. But I don't think I can find a copy. :(

[Brice]

On the internet you can, Melike. :D

I am amazed by how many people haven't even heard of this.

[mae]

I am amazed by how many people haven't even heard of this.

I am too, to be honest. It's always been on Wikipedia as part of Stephen King's bibliography: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Stephen_King

[gsvec]

There are also a TON of them on eBay, prices ranging from $1.27 (without a dust jacket) to *cough* $175 (and that guy's GOT to be kidding! At that price I figured it was signed or something :lol:)

No, i'd say at $175 he doesn't have to be kidding. He has to be on some SERIOUSLY good drugs.

[mae]

I posted a link to Bookfinder earlier. There are still two new copies available for twenty-odd bucks. So, if anyone's interested, now's your chance.

[The Lady of Shadows]

meh. pretty pictures. nice enough to have in my collection but i don't really consider this a book book. you know? more of a collectible.

[ksmithcats]

I feel better to see I'm not the only one who's never read this one. I didn't even know it existed. Now I'm gonna have to have it. Gargoyles are so fascinating.

[jayson]

Well if there's a prize for "Least Read King Work" this should walk away with it. I knew of its existence but never felt like it was anything all that important to read. I'd probably like the pictures.

[Brice]

It's actually pretty cool, IMO Jayson. If anything, if you can find a cheap copy you should check it out. :)

[mae]

Aaron will release a complete 1 through 60 ranking, as well as a least read ranking, so I'm sure this one will end up somewhere near the bottom :)

[Brice]

Near the bottom? No I think this one's got THAT award. :lol:
