King's best book in over a decade' - Esquire Legendary storyteller Stephen King goes into the deepest well of his imagination in this spellbinding novel about a seventeen-year-old boy who inherits the keys to a parallel world where good and evil are at war, and the stakes could not be higher - for their world or ours. Charlie Reade looks like a regular high school kid, great at baseball and football, a decent student. But he carries a heavy load. His mom was killed in a hit-and-run accident when he was seven, and grief drove his dad to drink. Charlie learned how to take care of himself - and his dad. Then, when Charlie is seventeen, he meets a dog named Radar and her ageing master, Howard Bowditch, a recluse in a big house at the top of a big hill, with a locked shed in the backyard. Sometimes strange sounds emerge from it. Charlie starts doing jobs for Mr. Bowditch and loses his heart to Radar. Then, when Bowditch dies, he leaves Charlie a cassette tape telling a story no one would believe. What Bowditch knows, and has kept secret all his long life, is that inside the shed is a portal to another world. King's storytelling in Fairy Tale soars. This is a magnificent and terrifying tale about another world than ours, in which good is pitted against overwhelming evil, and a heroic boy - and his dog - must lead the battle. Review: Great book - A great book that I love. I listened to the audio book on audible and liked it enough to buy the book. Friends have borrowed it and like the story as well. Review: Apenas voy comenzándolo… - Apenas voy comenzándolo, pero la voz principal con que está narrada (la del adolescente) y los personajes (el perro, el papá) se me hacen muy auténticos e interesantes. Me emociona seguir avanzando y descubrir cómo se desenvuelve la historia. ## Features - Brand: Hodder & Stoughton - It can be a gift item - Easy to understand - Comes in proper packaging ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #24,175 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #41 in Contemporary Fantasy #398 in Paranormal Fantasy #421 in Action & Adventure Fantasy | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 13,902 Reviews | ## Images ![Hodder & Stoughton Fairy Tale: The No. 1 Sunday Times Bestseller - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/612BYerla-L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book *by M***D on 13 June 2026* A great book that I love.
