Albie has had his fair share of disappointment. It's become clear that the word loyalty has lost all meaning. In fact, it's become nothing more than a word etched in his flesh, lost in the sea of tattoos decorating his body. Were it not for the hate seething from his soul, he'd all but given up. His thirst for revenge brings us to his own saga. A tale of a real savage with nothing to lose and everything to get back. Follow Albie on his journey to right the wrongs he feels have been cast upon him and witness the creation of the next Kingpin.

King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.
