Gwendy’s Final Task by Stephen King and Richard Chizmar

 


Just like Jason and The Leprechaun before her, when there is no other place to go with a character you send them to space. Gwendy is now in her sixties and living with Alzheimer’s. She has one final task to do for Richard Farris. I enjoyed this book better than the second book, but the Button Box was the strongest of the trilogy. The flow of the story felt more polished and had less rambling on just to fit a certain page limit. The supporting characters did not seem as fleshed out as those in the Button Box, but they were more interesting than those in the Magic Feather. 3 out of 5 stars.

If I were to rate the series as a whole, I would round up and give the trilogy a 3.5 out of 5 stars. There was promise of an interesting story and the possibility of meeting Randal Flagg again, however, in the end Farris is a different character all together. I did enjoy the jumping in time so we could follow Gwendy during different periods in her life.
