About this episode

This episode introduces listeners to the works and legacy of Peter Straub, Stephen King's collaborator.

The Summer of Straub begins! With Other Worlds Than These, the third Talisman novel, hitting bookshelves this October, the Losers will be taking some time to familiarize any new Constant Readers with the works of Stephen King's late partner-in-crime Peter Straub. This is an introduction to the man's work and legacy. Stay tuned for a book episode on Julia and a special "Twinner" episode on Talisman/Black House in the weeks leading up to T3.
