Joe Hill is a Sunday Times bestseller and the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Heart-Shaped Box, The Fireman, and Full Throttle. He won the Eisner Award for Best Writer for his long-running comic book series, Locke & Key, co-created with artist Gabriel Rodriguez. Much of his work has been adapted for movies and television. His second novel, Horns, was translated to film in 2014 and starred Daniel Radcliffe. His third novel, NOS4A2, is now a hit series on AMC, starring Zachary Quinto. The first season of Locke & Key was released on Netflix in early 2020 and became an overnight smash. His story, 'In The Tall Grass'. co-written with Stephen King, was made into a feature for Netflix, and became a mind-bending cult horror sensation. Most recently, Hill has returned to graphic novels -- his latest comics include Basketful of Heads and Plunge for D.C., and Dying is Easy for IDW.
PRAISE FOR SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER JOE HILL * . * With King Sorrow, Joe Hill gloriously resurrects the doorstop horror blockbuster for a startling new century -- ALAN MOORE King Sorrow riddles and refracts the cultural and historical horrors of our last forty years through the eyes of a badass dragon and a group of close friends who know one another too well. It's a soaring epic and painfully intimate. It's humane and hideous. You won't be able to stop burning through the pages. -- PAUL TREMBLAY A brilliantly Faustian fable with a heart as huge as a dragon's, and a stinging twist in its tail. I devoured it -- RUTH WARE A monster of a book, as gripping and wickedly insidious as the title character. Not a page is wasted along its scaly length, from human villainy to diabolical plots, government folly to the desperate search for redemption. A vast, brimstoned, relentless zinger. -- NICK HARKAWAY Epic! KING SORROW is Hill's best and most ambitious work to date. Those Game of Thrones dragons are mere geckos next to Hill's monster. -- LINWOOD BARCLAY Original and gripping, a page-turner. -- GEORGE R. R, MARTIN Clever, gripping and packs a hell of a punch -- JOANNE HARRIS A fantastically compelling read -- OBSERVER
