Gwendy's Final Task: Gwendy's Button Box Trilogy

Autor Stephen King, Richard Chizmar
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mai 2022

The final book in the New York Times bestselling Gwendy’s Button Box trilogy from Stephen King and Richard Chizmar.

When Gwendy Peterson was twelve, a mysterious stranger named Richard Farris gave her a mysterious box for safekeeping. It offered treats and vintage coins, but it was dangerous. Pushing any of its eight colored buttons promised death and destruction. Years later, the button box reentered Gwendy’s life. A successful novelist and a rising political star, she was once again forced to deal with the temptation the box represented. Now, malignant forces seek to possess the button box, and it is up to Senator Gwendy Peterson to keep it from them at all costs. But where can one hide something from such powerful entities?

In Gwendy’s Final Task, master storytellers Stephen King and Richard Chizmar take us on a journey from Castle Rock to another famous cursed Maine city to the MF-1 space station, where Gwendy must execute a secret mission to save the world. And, maybe, all worlds.

Recenzii

Man, I love this story! The whole thing just races and feels so right-sized and so scarily and sadly relevant. Loved the characters . . . and the sense of one little girl's connection to the whole world through this weird device. It all just sang
A resonant novella set in one of King's signature locales: the small town of Castle Rock, Maine
[An] appealing chiller . . . The charming protagonist and thrill of temptation will enthrall fans and new readers alike
This charming, whimsical tale about a woman with an enchanted toy deepens into a story of pain and threat, destiny and desire
Has genuine charm
Tense and yet simultaneously moving
A well-written, seamless read (you can't see the join between the chapters King wrote and Chizmar wrote), that racks up the tension and dread, as well as the horror and the sense of wonder in this modern fairy story. The ending will bring a smile to the face, and possibly a tear to the eye. A fine end to the series and Gwendy's journey
Stephen King and Richard Chizmar's Gwendy saga comes to a satisfying conclusion . . . Unexpectedly moving. Like its predecessors, Gwendy's Final Task is both a seamless act of collaboration and a deeply felt reflection on the perilous state of our fractured modern world
