It is King's versatility, his skills as a writer, and his ability to tap into our fears that makes Uncle Stevie so eminently quotable. Even though King writes mainly terrifying books, his works are also full of wisdom, heart, humor, and compassion. He can be scaring your pants off one minute, and really making you think about humankind the next. Here are the best quotes from the master of the macabre: Stephen King.

Eyes of the Dragon is Steven King's first departure from Horror into the realm of Epic Fantasy. It is different from King's standard fair and I admit I only picked this up because the book's principal antagonist, Randal Flagg, later reappears in King's Dark Tower series. That said, I was very impressed with what I found here. Eyes of the Dragon is fantastic and stands as a great novel all on its own.

Also, Bronson Pinchot's narration is absolutely terrific. The echo he uses when voicing the dark wizard Flagg is particularly bone chilling. Highly recommended!

If you could sum up The Eyes of the Dragon in three words, what would they be?

Classic Dark Tower Tale

What other book might you compare The Eyes of the Dragon to and why?

Any of the stories within the universe of King's Dark Tower Series.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

I was initially excited to see that Bronson Pinchot narrated this book -- I mean, he is famous for his flamboyant characters and various accents!
However, he rarely uses any inflection or characterization for the different voices of the characters, and when he does ... it's just ... not pleasing.

Classic Story, Terrible Narration

The book was outstanding, absolutely no complaints about the content. But the performance was laughable. The recording quality was varied, which is not a good sign. There were many parts that had very clearly been dubbed in afterwards, because they sounded completely different. The narrator gave Flagg a voice that could barely be heard half of the time, or screaming the other half.
I will purchase many more Steve King books, but will never buy another book read by this narrator.
