With "NOS4A2," this outstanding novelist crafts his finest work yet. Disturbing, mesmerizing, and full of twisting thrills, Hill's phantasmagoric, devilishly playful masterpiece is a terrifying high-octane ride.

Oh my gosh he's so entertaining and intelligent. I've only read Horns, but I need to read more of his work. Would love to see him at a signing!!
judewishedhimselfout Agreed! He’s very humorous and quite easy to listen to. Would definitely love to attend a signing of his in the future as well. I’m gonna have to dive into NOS4A2 soon...
Wow that is awesome. Loved reading about your experience, thanks for sharing! I love all his books so far. I'm reading Strange Weather currently. I would love to meet him, but I think I would be so nervous.
Gets it from his parents- definitely his father’s son! Amazing men, both 😎
I tried to read Heart Shaped Box but never finished it. I'll have to go back to it. I picked up NOS4A2 and loved it. Kind of a cross between his dad and Justin Cronin who wrote The Passage. I'm now reading the Fireman and it is a book you just cannot put down.
He is such a good author. His answers are totally great!
I originally checked out Joe Hill only because of his father. However, I LOVE his writing in its own right. I am more than half way through N0S4A2, and it is kicking ass so far. I love It and cant wait to get back to it. N0S4A2 is very, very Stephen King-like. If you didn't know the author and were told it was a King novel, you would think "Sure, Stephen King." Although it dose have a detectably younger voice than what you'd expect from the old master. Saying the book is "King-like" though, is NOT a negative critique. It is a very entertaining read!
Min 31:35, you tell them!! XD so happy with his answer. I've read almost everything he's ever published (HE'S VEEERY GOOD) and I can tell you off the bat: this man's writing is nothing like his dad's, so please stop comparing.
There's nothing better than reading eating breakfast.
What a great guy. I love his folks. I love his writing.
He looks so much like his father Stephen King.
When I work at Barnes & Noble I was stalking the shelves, and this was way before anybody knew he was Stephen King's son, I've seen the back of one of his books and I was like this guy really looks like Stephen King. Funny enough now I know why 😂
Hes like his dad in that self effacing, shy sort of manner and obviously got his height from him too!
I swear he is my soulmate! Love him!
Lock and Key is amazing...on par with Sandman, believe me. Its wonderful and brilliant and funny and scary and uplifting.
i really need to read something by this guy
Because his dad is S. King?
@@Nautilus1972come on. The dude got his first work published anonymously. He's more than just Stephen king's son.
He sounds like TerranceMcKenna
hamm hamm hamm hamm hamm.....
He says "Um, um" a lot. He should train himself not to do that.
I am sure he has better, more relevant things to do, unlike you, obviously!
