"I love crime, I love mysteries, and I love ghosts. That combo made Hard Case Crime the perfect venue for this book, which is one of my favorites. I also loved the paperbacks I grew up with as a kid, and for that reason, were going to hold off on e-publishing this one for the time being. Joyland will be coming out in paperback, and folks who want to read it will have to buy the actual book." - Stephen King Notes An illustrated edition of Kings murderous tale set in a small-town amusement park in North Carolina, in 1973.

But he wound up facing something far more terrible: the legacy of a vicious murder, the fate of a dying child, and dark truths about life-and what comes after-that would change his world forever.A riveting story about love and loss, about growing up and growing old-and about those who dont get to do either because death comes for them before their time- JOYLAND is Stephen King at the peak of his storytelling powers.
