About this deal

Congresswoman Gwendy Peterson is a beacon of kindness and candor in Congress where these traits light up amidst the ever-growing shadowy spaces besieging Washington. It was more about the continuation of a story that was missing the other author. I know that sounds weird, but it was how I felt.

Gwendy’s Final Task by Stephen King and Richard Chizmar - The Gwendy’s Final Task by Stephen King and Richard Chizmar - The

Where is the man who said she would never see the Button Box again? Where was the bearer of the blessing and/or curse? Where was Richard Farris? She does not lose her sense of self, even as she doubts her past, present, and future deeds, which is admirable. Both the small press publication of Gwendy’s Magic Feather by Cemetery Dance Publications and the signed-limited edition by SST Publications are sharp! Sadly more lecherous old Congressmen and a dangerously enraged President makes life as a US Representative challenging.Richard Chizmar’s Gwendy’s Magic Feather forwards an odyssey undertaken by Gwendy who was just twelve when she was made caretaker of a device that impacted her world and ours: it was the rewarding, dangerous and beguiling Button Box.

Why you should buy this: I’m going to say this for those on the fence – this isn’t glorified fan fiction. Far from it. King’s fingers are all over this, so if that’s a reason to keep you from taking the plunge, it’s time to put that to bed. Years later, in Gwendy’s Magic Feather, she’s a successful novelist with a promising future in politics. But when the button box suddenly reappears in her life, she must decide if she is willing to risk everything for its temptations. I really enjoyed Gwendy’s Button Box when it came out. Richard and Stephen did a wonderful job of creating a story together that had all of the elements that I look for when reading these days.

The Button Box is its own character that crashes on the story and never lets up.

Once conned as a little girl, with all of the money she had saved for months to buy a “magic feather” from a young boy preying on tourists. The feather did not appear to have any magical properties once it was attained. Think of the temptation for a young person, who is being bullied and has high aspirations (that the 1891 Morgan silver dollars help with) to not use the compelling buttons that call to her. What can the Button Box do? The Button Box is its own character that crashes on the story and never lets up. The first book in the series is Gwendy’s Button Box, co-authored by Stephen King and Richard Chizmar, and if you have NOT read Gwendy’s Button Box, STOP HERE and go read that novella now! Not later. I do not care what format, reading is reading with it be via hologram, audiobook, or good old-fashioned paper, made from trees, that smells nice. Here is a SPOILER WARNING** for the Preceding Book, Gwendy’s Button Box. We feel for Gwendy as guilt clouds her mind and her strong demureness is rattled by the uncertainty of what she has done in her life – did she act because she wanted to or what things did she do that may have just as a result of holding the talisman, the Button Box.

Gwendy is like no character I know of and her stories are a great example of contemporary speculative fiction that delves its own niche far into the realms of fiction.

Table of Contents

The Cemetery Dance edition has a beautiful texture to the boards with gold foil stamping and awesome cover art by Ben Baldwin and interior art by Vincent Sammy. Gwendy speaks with a stranger, a man with a felt hat, at age 12 who asks her to guard a precious object. This is a book that holds up really well to the start of the trilogy and offers a really nice middle chapter to the series. Chizmar has done a bang-up job of continuing Gwendy’s story and I’m so happy I decided to read this. I think it’s a book that’ll surprise those people who still haven’t made the effort to read it and I’m now, personally, excited to see how this series is closed out. Steve Stred is the author of a number of novels, novellas and collections. He has appeared in anthologies with some of Horror’s heaviest hitters. We can see the Washington meetings. We can smell the unknown plots lurking in some of the politicians’ shadows.

Gwendy’s Magic Feather: Richard Chizmar {Book Review} Gwendy’s Magic Feather: Richard Chizmar

Scary’s Voices} Sound Bites: This weeks recommended horror podcasts. (Week Ending 6th November 2020) Before the Button Box had with the pull of a lever delivered delicious chocolates that improved all of the senses and gifted, for a time some of the things the holder of the Box desired; for Gwendy, she initially wanted to lose weight and as she got older she kept the box dispatching mint condition 1891 Morgan silver dollars so she could afford to go to an Ivy League college. In Gwendy’s Button Box, twelve-year-old Gwendy Peterson’s life is forever changed when she is given a mysterious wooden box by a stranger for safekeeping. It offers enticing treats and vintage coins, but he warns her that if she presses any of the box’s beautifully colored buttons, death and destruction will follow. The next book Gwendy’s Final Task, possibly the comclusion to the Gwendy Series, is co-authored by Stephen King and Richard Chizmar, and comes out on February 15 th, 2022. But he does finally assure Gwendy that she is special, a caretaker, but she has also made her life’s accomplishments on her own.Richard Chizmar brilliantly grows Gwendy’s story arc. And come the end the reader is left wanting to follow along with her as her odyssey continues. Let’s examine the book’s editions! The complete collection of the New York Times bestselling trilogy from Stephen King and Richard Chizmar! There is a great crime element in this book, a touch of macabre in both well-lit scenes and ones in the frozen darkness, and a lot of brooding suspense led by the intrinsic character of Gwendy. Now examine the character of a person who, despite being told her caretaking of the Button Box has rewards, is savvy enough to believe that there is a cost too and so she does not abuse the power she inherits. Put particular emphasis on these things: Gwendy lured beyond recall and the Button Box (and Farris, possibly) in the end caused the Jonestown massacre.
