    I created a thread in the collecting subforum, but perhaps I should've just asked my question here:

Obviously, I have the Viking edition, as the Philtrum edition is way too expensive for me. I know the book was revised between the two editions. So the question is, what exactly was changed?

    I'm going to have to try to actually read this book. Bronson Pinchot reads the audio version and I couldn't take it.

I have this vision of Mrs. King walking into SK's study and saying:

    TK: Dinner's ready!

    SK: But honey, I'm almost done..just few more pages.

    TK: I"m sick of your "few more pages" shit! Get your ass downstairs and eat your goddamn dinner that I just spent 2 hours making!

    SK: Dammit woman! You're breaking my train of thought! I might not be able to pick it up again!

    TK: Oh boo fucking hoo!

    SK: Well, fuck! Its too late now! Dammit! *takes a predinner bong hit* Thanks for fucking up my ending, bitch! All for your shitty meatloaf and peas!
    Can you really see Tabitha doing that?....LOL

    I personally have a special place in my heart for this book because it was my first King book...I read it when it came out many moons ago...My mother read it first and said it was more for my age than hers. It helped me get through a lot of shit when I was young, I was able to lose myself in that world and forget the bad stuff at that time.

    Eyes of the Dragon is still one of my favorites. I guess it's a bit quaint but it's one that I have come back to again and again.

    I actually lent it to a friend who was new to SK (I had previously given her Girl who Loved Tom Gordon) and she loved it. I also remember how she hated Flagg and at one point she said out loud when reading it, "No [Thomas], don't listen to him!"
