Advance Praise

""What a treasure house is this book Robots, space aliens, Einstein, black holes, time travel--these themes, and much more, from Stephen King's amazing books are opened up like toy chests. It's tremendous fun, entirely educational, and a great tribute to King.""
--Peter Straub

""A fun, fun read.""
--F. Paul Wilson

""The Science of Stephen King appeals to both the scientist and the longtimereader of Stephen King in me. Gresh and Weinberg use concepts from King's fiction as launching pads for in-depth explorations of concepts as diverse as ESP, pyrokinesis, time travel, artificial intelligence, quantum chemistry, alternate realities, string theory, and the possibility that we'll be visited by aliens or that we'll face a global pandemic. Much of what Stephen King writes about in his novels is closer to reality than you might think.""
--Bev Vincent, Ph.D., author of The Road to the Dark Tower

""A superb overview of King's use of scientific concepts in his stories. And considering all the scary talk lately about pandemic flu, their chapter on The Stand is timely as hell.""
--Stephen Spignesi, author of The Complete Stephen King Encyclopedia

""Just as Sagan and Asimov popularized science to the masses by making itentertaining and informative, so too do Gresh and Weinberg.Compulsively readable and thought-provoking.""
--George Beahm, author of The Stephen King Companion

Must buy
Flavor Name: Bacon, Size: Small
I've bought multiple of these for various different dogs. They've all loved them. Great for gifts or just because you want to buy. I highly recommend. Seems safe to eat. Lasts a while. It's hard then as dogs chew it, it breaks down. The shape make it easy for the dogs to use their paws to hold it.

He loves them
Flavor Name: Bacon, Size: Medium
My little one goes to town on these.. I have bought several.. I get scare when he chews all of the end down and then looks like little pieces of the fiber are coming off. so I throw away and buy a new one.. at least they are cheap enough to do that for cost. He loves them and nothing else gets chewed.

I will buy this again if it ever wears out! 🦴
Flavor Name: Bacon, Size: Medium
My dog loves it, he’s a Boston Terrier. Perfect size for a Boston. It is well made, doesn’t fall apart and there is no stink! Safe to let dog use by himself and good value for the money.

Only bone for my dog
Flavor Name: Chicken, Size: Medium
These are the only bones my dog will chew on. He loves both the chicken and bacon flavored. I just have to watch him as if they get too small I don't let him chew and will give him a new one.
