I’m happy to reveal that Buchheim Verlag will release a trade edition of my book Shining in the Dark in German in March 2025. Earlier the book has only been released in a limited print run in German but now everyone will be able to read it.

The book contains Stephen King’s story The Blue Air Compressor not reprinted since 1981 and then it a small magazine as well as an original story by John Ajvide Lindqvist called The Keeper's Companion that so far can only be found here. Just to name a few of all the names included in the book.

You can find more info about the book itself on the official site.

More info to come!

We Have A Winner!

OK, the contest is over, and this one might have been the hardest I’ve had so far. It seems a lot of you misread the question.


The question was this:

King’s first and last book during his 50-year long publishing period (April 1974 and April 2024) have something in common. What is it and what are the titles of these two books?

If we break down the question, we get this:

The timeline for the question: King’s 50-year long publishing period (April 1974 and April 2024). This has nothing to do with any specific book. It’s the time for his first 50-years as a published author and the timespan for the question.

During this period, (April 1974 and April 2024) he published all his books up till Holly. You Like It Darker was released after April 2024 (it was released in May 2024) and has nothing to do with this as I never said his first and last book of ALL his books.

So, for the question the first book is Carrie (April 1974) and the last is Holly (September 2023).

And what those two books have in common is that they both have a female name as their titles which is the answer to the question.

Someone who figured this out and who is also the winner of the signed copy of HEARTS IN SUSPENSION is Matt G. from Claremont, NH. Congratulations and thanks to Veryfinebooks who sponsored this contest!

Variety reports that Mike Flanagan will adapt Carrie as an 8-part TV serie for Amazon.

A series adaptation of Stephen King’s novel “Carrie” from horror maven Mike Flanagan is in development at Amazon MGM Studios, Variety has learned.

The series logline describes it as a “bold and timely reimagining of the story of misfit high-schooler Carrie White, who has spent her life in seclusion with her domineering mother. After her father’s sudden and untimely death, Carrie finds herself contending with the alien landscape of public High School, a bullying scandal that shatters her community, and the emergence of mysterious telekinetic powers.”

Flanagan will write and executive produce the potential series with Intrepid Picture’s Trevor Macy also serving as an executive producer. Flanagan will also serve as showrunner. Melinda Nishioka will oversee the project for Intrepid. Flanagan is currently under an overall deal with Amazon MGM Studios.
