To celebrate the publication of The Wind through the Keyhole, the hotly anticipated new book in Stephen King’s fantasy series The Dark Tower, we’re inviting you to help make literary history; lucky entrants will have their faces featured on the back of the jacket artwork. Using mosaic design technologies, thousands of readers’ images will be incorporated in the illustration on the jacket of The Wind through the Keyhole. One winner will also be selected at random to receive the entire STEPHEN KING backlist published by Hodder in the UK. For your chance to be a part of this unique opportunity, all you have to do is upload your photo via this facebook app https://www.facebook.com/stephenkingbooks. We can’t guarantee that everyone’s photo will make it on – but we’ll contact you when the jacket is ready so you can see if your face is featured, and if you’ve been lucky, you can share your pixels of fame with friends and family! The Wind through the Keyhole is published on 24th April 2012 | ||||

I am a huge Stephen King fan, and I have read the Dark Tower Series five times. I pre-ordered The Wind Through the Keyhole the minute it became available, but with a great deal of trepidation. Everyone that is a Dark Tower Junky knows how the tale ends, and I did not know what more could be added (without ruining the story). I should have known better than to second guess Stephen King, obviously the biggest and most dedicated Dark Tower fan, because he did no damage at all to the legacy of Roland and his ka-tet. I think Stephen King did an excellent job "weaving" three tales into one story. We, the constant readers, got to learn a bit more about Roland's youth; homage was paid to the Throcken (Billy-Bumbler) and we were introduced to another hero of mid-world, Tim Stoutheart
