Ordered it after finishing the series, just wanted the lore. Covers way more than the movies and it's scarier. Forty pages a night before bed and I think about it all day at work. Came wrapped and boxed properly, not a dent on it.

Inside the Book:
Four things the films never had room for, in 1,168 pages.
The Half The Movies Cut
+
The films took the clown and left the rest. The book gives you Derry's full history, all seven Losers as real kids, and the 1958 summer in full. Readers who come from the films say the same thing: it covers far more, and it's scarier.
1,168 Pages You'll Actually Finish
+
It looks intimidating on the shelf and then disappears in a few weeks. The chapters are short, the two timelines pull against each other, and readers keep reporting they finished it in under a month and thought about it all day in between.
Built To Be Kept
+
New cover art, matte black jacket, red stained edges, the complete unabridged novel. Not a mass-market paperback with see-through pages and print you need a lamp for. This is the one that stays on the shelf for the next forty years.
Nobody Warns You About The Ending
+
People come for a scary clown book and finish it in tears. The horror is the glue holding the friendships together, and the last stretch is why grown adults call this the best book they've ever read.

Wife got it for me because I've watched both movies about ten times. Didn't know a book could be this heavy. It covers so much more than the films and I'm only a third in. Came wrapped properly too, no dents, which honestly surprised me.
Paul R. (Bangor, ME),

Read this first in 1987 and my old copy is falling apart. I've been burned by special editions before, jacket ripped, corners bashed, so I nearly didn't risk it. Turned up flawless. The description was accurate too, exactly what was listed, no surprises.

I'll admit I stared at the page count for about a week before I ordered this. I haven't finished a proper book in about four years, so spending this much on something that was probably going to sit on my nightstand felt stupid. The first stretch is slow, everyone says that and it's true, and then somewhere around the middle it just takes off and I stopped being able to put it down. I came to it from the movies and it's not even close, there's so much they left out, and it's scarier on the page than it is on screen. I'm a grown woman reading in bed with the lamp on like a kid. It also showed up in perfect condition, not a bent corner, which I wasn't expecting after the last couple of books I ordered online.

Bought it for my brother for Halloween since he'd just finished the series. He went quiet for about ten minutes when he opened it, which never happens. Thick book, looks great, and it got here days before I needed it.

What can you say about King, he speaks for himself. I checked the listing carefully because I've bought "special" editions that were just a new cover. This is the full unabridged novel, new cover art, red edges, exactly as described. Packed properly and not a mark on it. Worth it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our products, shipping, returns, and more.
She's seen every episode a hundred times, won't she already know all this?
+
This is the single most common thing readers get wrong before buying, and the most common thing they mention after. People who can quote whole episodes, who've watched the series through fifty times, who've owned the DVDs for twenty years, they open it and find things they'd never heard. It isn't trivia assembled off the internet. It's first-hand interviews, most never published anywhere, with the people who were actually in the room.
Is it just episode summaries and photos?
+
That's what most people expect from the cover, and it's the reason the most repeated reaction to it is surprise. It's 368 pages of oral history. Each episode comes with commentary from the writers, producers, crew and guest stars — what got cut, what got argued over, what was improvised. Plus full chapters on the sets, the theme song, the fashion, the fandom, and the show's legacy.
Does it cover every episode?
+
No, about 80% of them, weighted toward episodes with a notable guest star or a story behind the production. This is the thing readers most often wish were different, so we'd rather you hear it from us. Every season is covered, in order; a handful of individual episodes aren't.
Will it arrive in good condition?
+
The jacket and corners are half the point of a book like this, so it ships boxed rather than bagged. If it turns up damaged, tell us and we'll replace it.
What if it isn't right?
+
30 days. Open it, read a chapter, put that episode on. If it doesn't change how you watch the show, send it back and we'll refund you.
How long is delivery?
+
11-15 days. Free shipping on every order.
