If you truly want to find out why Stephen King's the greatest Horror fiction writer of all time, then you should definitely read this book. If you truly want to find out more about Stephen King and his childhood and adulthood, then you should definitely read this book. However, if you don't want to read the story of Stephen King's life through the prism of his works in a very descriptive detail, then I'd strongly advise against it, for as rich as this book is with the story of Stephen King's life and his works, it's way too detailed, for it's shows way too big of a glimpse inside of Stephen King's character and Stephen King's personality.
