NOS4A2 by Joe Hill

[Rahvyn]

An interesting premise, this is a tale of a little girl who uses her magic bike and a nonexistent bridge to find what is lost and an old man who uses his magic car to take kidnapped kids to a magical place called Christmasland and the sparks that fly when they meet.

I truly enjoyed this one. Enough that I'm going to be looking into the author's other works which includes the comic Locke and Key.

Also on a little further research I find out that this is Stephen King's kid and it looks like the the talent was passed down.

I wrote this on fb - "NOS4A2" novel by Joe Hill (Stephen King's son) - buy it, read it. I just finished it in 3 nights of reading, had a hard time putting it down. It was better than any of the dozens of books I've read (and enjoyed) by Stephen King himself. Childhood and loss, fatherhood and motherhood, a vampiric creature, Christmasland the place of eternal childhood amusement, and a bad ass motorcycle - check it out.

I added it to the top of my queue because of that FB comment.

Finished it. Kate Mulgrew (Star Trek: Voyager, Orange is the New Black) is an awsome narrator. Check out the audible version if you can.

Ohhh I can imagine it in her voice...
