One of my favorite books by Stephen King (yes the master of suspense wrote a fantasy) is "The eyes of the Dragon." It has many intricate plot twist and important details so I won't go to far into it. In a nutshell it's about a evil magician who frames Prince peter for the murder of his father the king, to get the younger prince on the thrown. I was indeed thrilled when I heard plans were in the works for an animated adaption of the book, so if anyone knows anything aout this, write to me.

This isn't his first fantasy. He began The Gunslinger long before he began this one. Ironic, really, seeing as how its supposed to be the last thing he writes, or at least finishing The Dark Tower series.

I haven't read the book yet. This one kid that was in my Biology class last year reread it about three times during the school year. I told him to at least read a different book and so he reread the same one a fourth time. I saw him in the hall this year and he at least has another book, Night Shift (a collection of short stories by Stephen King).

I hear mixed reviews from the book. Some people, like my one friend, loves it. Others don't. I'm planning on reading it, but I've other books higher on the pecking order.

I haven't heard of plans for a movie of it, though. It's something I'd like to see, though.

I was just looking for another topic here and stumbled across this one again. I just thought I could give an update about this. It's been around for awhile, but it tells more about the movie, and not so much about the plot. This is taken from the official Stephen King website, www.stephenking.com.

"Eyes of the Dragon: Currently in production. The story has been optioned by a French production company (WAMC Entertainment). This will be an animated feature and there is no release date set."
