- Return of the King
'Duma Key” constitutes a return to form for a beloved pop novelist who has seemed, for many years now, to be running out of steam. Stephen King's recent output, though scarcely less protean than before he announced retirement in 2002, has been spotty at best.

It takes willpower for Will to contend with 'The Dragons of Babel'
If you haven't read Michael Swanwick yet, you've been missing some wonderful prose.
