Spring 2019 sees Stephen King continue his rightful place as the King of Halloween with four more nostalgia-inducing collector's editions of his classic novels.

Misery Chastain was dead. Paul Sheldon had just killed her - with relief, with joy. Misery had made him rich; she was the heroine of a string of bestsellers. And now he wanted to get on to some real writing.

That's when the car accident happened, and he woke up in pain in a strange bed. But it wasn't the hospital. Annie Wilkes had pulled him from the wreck, brought him to her remote mountain home, splinted and set his mangled legs.

The good news was that Annie was a nurse and has pain-killing drugs. The bad news was that she was Paul's Number One Fan. And when she found out what Paul had done to Misery, she didn't like it. She didn't like it at all. And now he had to bring Misery back to life. Or else...

"King - the master of his craft."
Sydney Morning Herald

"It is fair to say Stephen King is a thriller writer who regularly takes his readers beyond the realms of anything they've read."
The Daily Telegraph

"Only a handful of authors regularly enter the New York Times bestseller list at No. 1, and King is one of them."
The Sunday Telegraph

"The horror specialist."
Herald Sun

"[Stephen King's] a genius at capturing the small-town American psyche and his characters, good, bad and insane always command the attention."
Good Reading
