ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Stephen King and Peter Straub's "The Talisman" follows a young boy named Jack Sawyer on a remarkable journey. When his mother falls gravely ill, Jack learns of another realm called the Territories, a place mirroring his own world. He discovers that his mother's fate is intertwined with that of the Territories' Queen, her "Twinner." Guided by a mysterious old man, Jack embarks on a perilous quest to find a legendary artifact, the Talisman, which holds the power to save them both. The novel explores themes of parallel realities, the battle between light and darkness, and a boy's courage in the face of overwhelming odds as he navigates these dangerous and interconnected worlds.
