Hearts in Atlantis
The classic collection of five deeply resonant, interconnected stories from No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author Stephen King, now with a new cover look. 'Although it's difficult to believe, the sixties are not fictional; they actually happened' (Author's Afterword) Stephen King, whose first novel, Carrie, was published in 1974, the year before the last US troops withdrew from Vietnam, is the first hugely popular writer of the TV generation. Images from that war - and the protests against it - had flooded America's living rooms for a decade. Hearts in Atlantis is composed of five linked stories set in the years from 1960 to 1999. Each story is deeply rooted in the sixties, and each is haunted by the Vietnam War. Full of danger, full of suspense, most of all full of heart, Hearts in Atlantis will take some readers to a place they have never been...and others to a place they have never been able to completely leave.
Summary of Fairy Tale
Fairy Tale - A Comprehensive Summary Charlie Reade is about to embark on a magical and terrifying journey in this epic tale about a boy, a dog, and a magical world. At seventeen, he has already gone through a lot. His mother passed away tragically in an accident, and his father started drinking. "If you do that for me, whoever you are, I'll do something for you..." Charlie prays as he falls to his knees in despair. "Just show me what you want, and I'll make it happen." I certify to God." After that, to Charlie's surprise, his father gets sober with the help of a AA companion, and things get back to normal. But Charlie keeps his promise, and when he hears a dog howling behind what the kids call "The Psycho House," he doesn't hesitate. He comes across an equally elderly dog named Radar and an elderly man named Howard Bowditch lying on the back stairs with a broken leg. In light of the fact that Mr. Bowditch will be in the hospital for some time, Charlie calls 911 and offers to care for the dog. As a result, Charlie, the dog, and the elderly man with his many secrets form a strange and intriguing connection. Charlie travels to a mysterious location reminiscent of fairy tales he read as a child thanks to the connection between the three. Charlie's journey, which is more like a quest, takes him to a gloomy, terrifying area from which he may never leave.

The Witch's Heart
When a banished witch falls in love with the legendary trickster Loki, she risks the wrath of the gods in this fierce, subversive debut novel that reimagines Norse myth. Angrboda's story begins where most witch tales end: with being burnt. A punishment from Odin for sharing her visions of the future with the wrong people, the fire leaves Angrboda injured and powerless, and she flees into the furthest reaches of a remote forest. There she is found by a man who reveals himself to be the trickster god Loki, and her initial distrust of him—and any of his kind—grows reluctantly into a deep and abiding love. Their union produces the most important things in her long life: a trio of peculiar children, each with a secret destiny, whom she is keen to raise at the edge of the world, safely hidden from Odin's all-seeing eye. But as Angrboda slowly recovers her prophetic powers, she learns that her blissful life—and possibly all of existence—is in danger. Angrboda must choose whether she'll accept the fate that she's foreseen for her beloved family—or rise to remake it.
