Content

In our latest book episode, exclusive to the Barrens, the Losers sort through Stephen King's latest opus Fairy Tale. Together, they discuss the fantasy genre at large, why it's so en vogue right now, how this story factors into King's Dominion, the missed opportunities, and, of course, dogs.

I'm a Cell defender, and I really enjoyed Fairytale! I may stand alone but I stand proudly. Love your episodes even when we disagree.

Jeff Clutterbuck

Does this episode end happily ever after? Tune in and find out, coming up next on The Losers’ Club! 7/8 Central

I hope they were fairly brutal with this turkey of a book!

Brett Littman

I believe this turkey soared. Sincerely.

The stuffing could've been better.

My only issues with the book was that it felt a little "kidish" at times. Stephen King is softening up with age but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing.

Jennifer Urbain

Guys; I love you but it’s like we read two different books.

Jennifer Urbain

For example, the reunion on pp. 480 and 481 made be sob with joy, (with almost 100 pages to go) and I never felt like Radar was gone. So much about this story was sentimental, maybe that’s why some CR’s didn’t like it. For me it was just what I would expect from a writer of SK’s generation, life experience, and abilities. How conversant he is in modern kidspeak (or not) doesn’t bother me at all, having read him for nearly 50 years.

Adam Hicks

I felt the same as you all did. Great book in “our” world. Fell off a cliff in the fantasy realm. One note- you mentioned the RL Stine book from 2016 that’s discussed in 2013. There is also a part where Charlie’s teacher asks him about the Phillando Castille and Alton Sterling shootings. Those also occurred in 2016. It’s like King had set the book in 2016, then went back 3 years but said screw it…I can’t remember where all those references were.

Adam Dietz

Was pretty ho-hum on most of the book, but that last line, however sacharrin it may be, won me over. Still only a 3 noser IMHO, but at least I put the book down having felt a little something there at the end.

Another King's dominion I found and correct me if I'm wrong, but the line "are we well met?" I believe is from the dark universe.

The Spielberg decline takes on the episode is insane

I think The Post is good not great. But he just made West Side Story, which is one of his peak of filmmaking craft. Not to mention he had a run of great films just last decade with Lincoln and Bridge of Spies. Quality aside, I just don’t agree with the argument that Spielberg hasn’t evolved as a filmmaker. He has distinct phases in his career where is approach to filmmaking and thematic interests are vastly different. You can’t say that Amblin era Spielberg and early 2000s war on terror paranoia Spielberg are more or less doing the same thing

I couldn’t put the book down, yet loved listening to this discussion today. I personally enjoyed all the sections of the book, but at the same time completely see the frustrations with it. Personally what had me on edge as he was locked away in Empis (he writes the story, obviously escapes some form of peril), was the risk he returns home to find his dad had gone back to drinking. King didn’t build this up much, but hints at it from time to time. Ultimately I was tearing up as they embraced. Cheers to a fun discussion.

Joseph Brown

Love it when Justin does books. A throwback to the early days.

Cristena Roll

I'm usually right there with you guys about the novels, but man, I really loved this book. I've convinced my husband to give it a go and he's almost finished with it. I've been telling him about your podcast for the last couple years and was thinking about trying to get him to listen to this episode with me but I'm glad I went solo instead 😂😂 That aside, I've really enjoyed listening to your episodes as I do my reread of his books.
