The Constant Reader Podcast - The Canon of Stephen King
Hosted by Richard Sheppard · EN
Everything Stephen King, from Carrie to The Institute, from the novels to the short stories, from the small screen to the big screen. Each month we take a deep dive into one book from the bibliography of the King of horror fiction, while also charting the byways of King's forays into other genres (The Dark Tower series, On Writing etc) and also casting an eye on the many TV and film adaptations of King's work.
Recorded live from the UEA media suite, Richard Sheppard interviews writers, academics, superfans and anyone with a passion for the work of Stephen King.

Episode Twenty - Needful Things w/Dan Jones (Writer of Man o' War and Host of the Chronscast Podcast)
Jan 31, 2022Tap to summarizeBuyer beware in Castle Rock, as Leland Gaunt only wants a little of your money, and all of your soul. Stephen King's 1994 novel Needful Things gets a dismantling with returning guest Dan Jones. One of our mutual favourites, and one of the stories that signposted the interesting development King's work would take in the 1990s, as he starts to leave Maine behind (in explosive fashion) and branches out to weirder climes.... Dan Jones is the author of Man o' War, published by Snowbooks which can be purchased from amazon, forbidden planet.......and he has his own website www.danjonesbooks.club, he is also the co-host of the SFF Chrons podcast, a new pod dealing with deep dives into the classics of the science fiction, fantasy and horror genres. I am going to be guest soon talking about An American Werewolf in London, and am very excited to be part of this new series.
