First off, I must admit that the idea of a link list was not originally mine. I have to credit Jon Skeet with creating the list I first saw which prompted me to put this one together. While Jon tends to prefer the type of links he feels King intended his readers to find (sort of like birthday presents to his readers), I’m intrigued even by the remotest chance coincidence (like the same surname, or street name, etc). So that’s where this page is heading.

I’ve also got to heap lavish praise on Stephen Spignesi’s mammoth tome entitled The Complete Stephen King Encyclopedia. Bigger than many telephone books I’ve seen, this book has so much information on King’s characters and settings that reading through it sparked memories of characters and things I’d long since forgotten. It really helped in refreshing my memory on books I hadn’t read for awhile and I definitely recommend it to all constant readers.
