(  ) Anagarika | Nov 3, 2009 |  I Initially found this book very difficult to get into. I felt almost like I was dragging myself through the first couple of chapters. However, after the slow start - I found that I couldn't put the book down. The imagery was intensive and the basic story premise was quite sweet (A word I rarely use in describing a King novel. All in all I found it was very captivating and recommend it to those who don't mind investing a little bit of time for a quest through time and other worlds. ( ) Spiceca | Oct 22, 2009 | A novel about a boy named Jack Sawyer who is sent on a dangerous mission that will save his dying mother. Along the way Jack learns to grow up and what the meaning of loyalty and loss is. The reader sits on the side lines and feels all of Jack's emotions, when Jack weeps you want to weep (  ) Altarasabine | Oct 19, 2009 | I love this book. I've read it several times and will likely read it again. It's such a moving story. (  ) Featherfire | Oct 15, 2009 | I've always loved the idea of another world that most of us can't see - the idea of the multiverse. Maybe I shouldn't have watched Sliders as a kid. :) But this is that idea at its best - along with the recurrent King theme of an adolescent boy who must save the world. I think the Talisman's Jack might be sort of a proto-Roland. ( ) annie1378 | Sep 25, 2009 |  sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

For he has been chosen to make a journey back across America--and into another realm.
One of the most influential and heralded works of fantasy ever written, The Talisman is an extraordinary novel of loyalty, awakening, terror, and mystery. Jack Sawyer, on a desperate quest to save his mother's life, must search for a prize across an epic landscape of innocents and monsters, of incredible dangers and even more incredible truths. The prize is essential, but the journey means even more. Let the quest begin...
