Charlie the Choo-Choo: From the World of the Dark Tower

well packaged, lovely illustrations, great book, thank you

Really good childrens book. Charlie may look frightning but he is not, this is a really sweet story that Stephen King wishes he had written. 😂

The Dark Tower has so many facets, this is a small but very memorable peice of the story. Well worth the wait.

Great service, exactly what it says it is. Looks brand new.

I've never waiting rainforest this book to be published for 20 years. Love it that they have wrote it as beryl Evans and is just like I imagined it.

Charlie the Choo-Choo will be familiar to readers of Stephen King's Dark Tower series of books, in which the book plays a part. Ostensibly by an author called Beryl Evans (or a certain Mrs Bachman, if you've read that far along in the Dark Tower books), the story's words are actaully from the pen of Stephen King himself. The story is quite simple, and will be familiar to anybody who has read Thomas the Tank-Engine books; an old-fashioned locomotive becomes redundant when replaced by a brand-spanking new diesel engine, but is later called upon to save the day. In this regard, the book would seem to be perfectly suitable for small children. However, it's fair to say that some of the pictures look rather disturbing; the cover picture is a case in point; Charlie's face looks rather nasty and gloating, and are the children inside the train really laughing? I wouldn't be too sure about that... Whilst something of a curio, this is a good (if very short) story link to The Dark Tower series, and will be of interest to Stephen King fans as a result. It is very short, as one would expect from a children's picture book, but nevertheless it's a worthwhile addition to the collection of any King fan. And whilst children might enjoy it, it has to be remembered that it does have its unsettling aspects. Four stars.

Choo Choo. Part of my SK collection, and that's the truth.

Unusual but fab

Aconselhável para qualquer fã de Stephen King e da saga A Torre Negra

perfeito

Ceux qui ont lu la saga de "La Tour Sombre" savent de quoi on parle. L'histoire du petit train est un élément culturel américain, digne de ceux que le maître King sait si bien détourner, et donc les illustrations sont parfaites avec ce sourire désagréable de la locomotive et les hurlements (joie ou terreur ?) des enfants emmenés à bord...

Awesome to have. If you are a fan of The Dark Tower series put this in your collection.

Il primo libro per ragazzi scritto da Stephen King e pubblicato sotto lo pseudonimo di Beryl Evans, Charlie the Choo-Choo non è solo un oggetto da collezione (come soprattutto nel mio caso) rimandante alla Torre Nera, dove in Terre Desolate ha un ruolo di inquieta importanza; ma è anche uno splendido e sinistro libro con le bellissime illustrazioni di Ned Dameron. Il pacco è arrivato in condizioni perfette ed il libro vale tutti i soldi spesi.
