I'm debating which one to get, any suggestions? Maybe it'll help if I list the king books I have read.

DT series
The Stand
Misery

Talisman.
UtD is a good read, but Talisman is a must.

Well I'm glad to see I'm not the only vote for Under the Dome. I couldn't finish The Talisman, whereas I just devoured Under the Dome.

THE TALISMAN is one of my favorite King books, so I voted for that one.

However if you want to join in the discussions of what's new, I'd recommend reading UTD first. The other will always be there.

UTD is £20

Not everywhere. (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0340992565/ref=nosim/booksprice-21)


and I can't find The Talisman ANYWHERE

The internet is your friend. (http://www.booksprice.co.uk/comparePrice.do?l=y&searchType=compare&inputData=0340952717&st=UK)

This website (http://www.booksprice.co.uk) is handy for comparisons.

That being said I can understand if you wish to support your local bookshop, they're having a bit of a hard time at the moment. I'm sure there'll be copies, it's a fairly popular book.

The thing is Brainslinger, I don't have any money in my account, I have it all in cash.

Ah. Okay, gotcha. Try to put some into your account when you can though.

I know that's easier said than done if you're unemployed or a student. I know what that's like, I'll have to re-register with the Jobcentre soon myself now I've finished my temp Christmas work.

Mark - I would really really recogmend The Talisman - just for the simple fact that its AMAZING!! :) it's a very nice read and there's the amazing DT theme'd sequel The BlackHouse which is also amazing!! :)
I've not read UTD yet, but I am planning to when I finish the Dark Tower series!! :)

Have you tried Liverpool City Center? I'm pretty certain that the Waterstones in either Bold Street or Liverpool 1 will have The Talisman (and if not they are normally really good at ordering books in for you if you can wait :))

My local second-hand bookshop has about 3 copies of the Talisman at the moment. I definitely recommend it.

Haven't read Talisman yet its on my list! UTD is a good read but i thought the ending was a bit abrupt. I also agree with alinda on getting IT , a great book.
