The official graphic novel adaptation of the horror novel by Stephen King and Owen King concludes in this haunting interpretation of the chilling, timely bestseller. The mysterious plague known as Aurora has blanketed the world, and, to the men, all but a handful of sleep-deprived women seem trapped-cocooned-in seemingly endless slumber. In reality, their minds have been transported to a strange, utopic dream world. It's a world where small-town sheriff Lila Norcross and the other women can build their own society. And from which they might not want to wake. In the real world of Dooling, West Virginia, Lila's husband, beleaguered prison psychiatrist Clint Norcross, is struggling. He's trying to protect the woman called Eve Black from the ill-thought-out actions of increasingly desperate men. But Eve, as the only woman capable of waking up, has her own plans: a test with global consequences. A test Clint will have to pass if he ever hopes to see his wife again.

Lucky me.
This pair of books has allowed me to both grasp and enjoy the book in a much shorter time span. The tale, of women being transported while they sleep to the same world they have left, but without men to mess things up, has a nice ring to it. I only wonder why all the women would want to come back to the original version of things. I suppose, like every fairy tale, there must be a happy ending.
But for whom is it happy?
There is the usual quota of gore, small community self-applied tension, a bit of fantasy and dregs of horror, but there is also a beautiful story of love and self-realization happening here. This is sure to delight the busy followers of both Kings. ( )
