Stephen King’s Fairy Tale is a dark fantasy novel. This grand tale contains themes of the struggle between good and evil, fate vs. will. Stephen King’s Fairy Tale is a portal fantasy about an ordinary guy, Charlie Reade’s journey through the land of Empis. He was forced into the hero’s role by circumstance, and it is both spectacularly suspenseful and satisfying. Thus, this comic and scary novel is long and full of tangents and subplots.Â
