'I wanted to go back to Mid-World, which was always the Territories by another name' - Stephen King
This is Stephen King and Peter Straub's epic and unforgettable finale to the Talisman Trilogy (including the novels The Talisman and Black House) and a wrapping up of the fate of the worlds in King's iconic, fiercely beloved Dark Tower epic. It is also a wonderful stand-alone novel, that will appeal to new readers, as well as to King's Constant Reader.
OTHER WORLDS THAN THESE is the story of Jack Sawyer, whom readers first met when he was twelve, crossing America and 'the territories' to save his mother's life, and met again in Black House, where Jack faces a child killer and the Crimson King (among other evils). In OTHER WORLDS THAN THESE Jack must stop a rampaging gang of infected teenagers from America-side, and the forces of the mysterious Gullet at the edge of Mid-World, before it destroys our world and all worlds. Jack is older now; his Ka-tet is fraying; and his task, nearly impossible.
Magnificent, riveting, full of heart, and humour, OTHER WORLDS THAN THESE is a spectacular, propulsive adventure, and features 30 exclusive black and white illustrations by artist Gabriel Rodriguez.

Descriere
OTHER WORLDS THAN THESE is a spectacular, propulsive fantasy adventure from the bestselling collaboration between 'master craftsmen' (Washington Post) Stephen King and Peter Straub.
It is the story of Jack Sawyer who first travelled between America and the Territories to save his mother's life as a twelve-year-old boy. Many years later, as a retired policeman, he returns to face a serial killer.
Now, he must undertake a dangerous journey, to stop both a rampaging gang of infected teenagers from America-side and the forces of the mysterious Gullet at the edge of Mid-World before they destroy our world and all worlds.
But Jack is older, his band of pilgrims, his ka-tet, is fraying and his task is nearly impossible.
OTHER WORLDS THAN THESE is magnificent, riveting and full of heart. It is both a stand-alone novel and the unforgettable finale to The Talisman Trilogy, which includes The Talisman and Black House, as well as a wrapping-up of the fate of the worlds in King's iconic, beloved Dark Tower epic.
Features 38 exclusive black-and-white illustrations by artist Gabriel Rodrigues.
