Has anyone read this book yet?? I was just wondering what you thought about it.. I am like a 1/4 of the way through and i was wondering if i should continue... Cause its pretty boring atm.. Does it get better??

The book if you dont know is by Stephen King and Peter Straub.

If it is by King then just wait for the movie. Is it a recent book?

I haven't heard of it, but it certainly has an interesting title.

STOP READING BLACK HOUSE!

"Black House" is actualy the 2nd of a two part story.
You can read it and maybe get it but you realy need to read "The Talisman (http://www.flat7.demon.co.uk/straub/novels/talisman.htm) " first.

The Talisman is about the same person as in Black House but when he was young. By reading it first it will make your Black House book make much more sence and IMO was the better of the two stories.

Both books are a bit drawn out in parts, but I enjoyed the story well enough.
By no means are these on a favorites list. But not a bad read eather.
