In this thrilling sequel to the New York Times bestselling novella by Stephen King and award-winning author Richard Chizmar, an adult Gwendy is summoned back to Castle Rock after the mysterious reappearance of the button box.

Something evil has swept into the small Maine town of Castle Rock on the heels of the latest winter storm. Sheriff Norris Ridgewick and his team are desperately searching for two missing girls, but time is running out.

In Washington, DC, thirty-seven-year-old Gwendy Peterson couldn’t be more different from the self-conscious teenaged girl who once spent a summer running up Castle Rock’s Suicide Stairs. That same summer, she had been entrusted—or some might say cursed—with the extraordinary button box by Richard Farris, the mysterious stranger in the black suit. The seductive and powerful box offered Gwendy small gifts in exchange for its care and feeding until Farris eventually returned, promising the young girl she’d never see the box again.

One day, though, the button box suddenly reappears but this time, without Richard Farris to explain why, or what she’s supposed to do with it. Between this and the troubling disappearances back in Castle Rock, Gwendy decides to return home. She just might be able to help rescue the missing girls and stop a dangerous madman before he does something ghastly.

With breathtaking and lyrical prose, Gwendy’s Magic Feather explores whether our lives are controlled by fate or the choices we make and what price we sometimes have to pay. Prepare to return again to Stephen King’s Castle Rock, the sleepy little town built on a bedrock of deep, dark secrets, just as it’s about to awaken from its quiet slumber once more.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Narrator Maggie Siff returns for this sequel to GWENDY'S BUTTON BOX. In the first audiobook, which was coauthored by Stephen King, Gwendy is an awkward teenager whose life is transformed by a magical button box that brings her good fortune and terror in turn. Now 37 years old, Gwendy is a bestselling author and congresswoman. Suddenly and without explanation, the button box reappears. Gwendy brings it home to Castle Rock, where she faces personal challenges and sinister forces that tempt her to once again use the button box's power. Much like in the original story, Siff's performance focuses mainly on the characters and their relationships. Her voicework creates a palpable sense of warmth and connection—a comforting atmosphere that is constantly threatened by the horror lurking beneath the surface."

I loved it!

Such a great novella! I am looking forward to the final one in this trilogy.

Maggie Siff + Stephen King = Fantastic

Love the button box novellas, and Maggie’s the perfect narrator for these creative and intriguing stories.

Captivating

Can be read before or after Gwendy's Button Box. The author did a wonderful job of including enough detail from the first story.

Gwendy is a lovable character. The author's descriptions & vocabulary throughout were beautifully composed. The perfect amount of suspense and closure.

Hoping to hear more of Gwendy Peterson's adventures in the future.

Fantastic

Chizmar writes great narrative. I really enjoy the style and pace. I was on pins and needles the whole time.

Great prequel to gwendys button box

A novella about Gwendys second experience with t the button box. It introduces an earlier time on Gwendys life. More questions are raised than answered. The characters are richly portrayed.

Glad I read it

Not your typical King story but I couldn’t stop listening to it. I found myself caught up in the characters story and the narrator was in sync with the her and the story. I found myself smiling, with a touch of excitement. Some may find it slow, but I found it satisfying in a strange.

Excellent, but short read!

My only complaint was that it ended too quickly, but at least I still have the third in the trilogy to read.

Gwendys perfection

I love the narrator. she's perfect. Great tones and inflection. She makes me able to picture Gwendy.
