It took me a while to finish this book, not cause of the book, but due to studying. Wow, this book had me on the edge of my seat, at times putting it down, and having to walk around the room to catch my breath. Another brilliantly writing story with the characters of Bill and Holly and Jerome returning to help with another victim of the Mercedes killer (from book I in the trilogy). Now it is just the small wait for the third in the trilogy to be released on the 7th of July. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Así comienza la fascinante novela de Stephen King sobre un lector fanático. El genio es John Rothstein, un autor de culto, creador del personaje de Jimmy Gold. Morris Bellamy está fuera de sí, no solo porque Rothstein haya dejado de escribir, sino también porque considera que el inconformista Jimmy Gold se ha vendido para dedicarse a la publicidad. Morris decide matar a Rothstein y vacía su caja fuerte para llevarse no solo todo el dinero sino además el verdadero tesoro: los cuadernos de notas de otra novela protagonizada por Jimmy Gold. Morris lo esconde todo y al día siguiente acaba en la cárcel por otro crimen terrorífico. Décadas más tarde un chico llamado Pete Saubers encuentra el tesoro y ahora son él y su familia a quienes han de salvar Bill Hodges, Holly Gibney y Jerome Robinson del vengativo y trastornado Morris cuando salga de la cárcel tras treinta y cinco años encerrado.

Stephen King pays homage to himself as he pairs elements from Misery and Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption with one of his stock heroes -- an intelligent teen boy who likes to read and aspires to write -- in a satisfying little thriller about a famous author ratholing unpublished manuscripts (see also, Bag of Bones) and the lengths a fan will go to to read them.
Ostensibly, this is the middle book of the Bill Hodges trilogy, but Bill and his colleagues, Holly Gibney and Jerome Robinson, don't really show up until page 157 and barely impact the rest of the story at all. Truly, they could be scraped out of the tale with very little editing, which causes me to entertain a theory that King might have inserted them into an existing (ratholed) or in-progress manuscript when his publisher asked for a quick sequel to Mr. Mercedes. Regardless, this book is obviously biding time until Hodges can have a final confrontation with his true nemesis.
Still, it's hard to dislike Stephen King when he's in the groove, and this book zips right along. ( )
