Gwendy's Final Task: Gwendy's Button Box Trilogy, Book 3 audiobook cover depicting a man with a super imposed castle on his chest

Today, extraordinary authors Stephen King and Richard Chizmar have released Gwendy’s Final Task, the last book in the New York Times best-selling Gwendy’s Button Box trilogy!

What started with Gwendy’s Button Box is a superb story about a girl who receives a mysterious box from one of Stephen King’s most intriguing, although infamous characters, ends now with a final adventure.

For those who don’t remember, the box offers the owner the power to destroy the world right at their fingertips… I dove in immediately after receiving my pre-order, and after listening late into the night, I can say without a doubt that I love it!

The writing is sharp, the action moves fast and the narration by Marin Ireland is excellent, as always. Although the previous two audiobooks were narrated by a different actor, Maggie Siff, I think that Tony Award-Winning actress Marin Ireland handles everything perfectly. She reads smoothly, she acts expertly and she brings to life each character with subtle changes in her voice and cadence.

Gwendy’s Final Task concludes the adventures of one of the most remarkable and unforgettable characters in the history of fiction. I will definitely miss her. It’s really good to be back with Gwendy, to revisit Castle Rock and some other really interesting places.

I highly recommend that you give a listen to all three audiobooks if you want to appreciate the entire story arc. This series is fantastic!

Constant readers of these two literary titans will be delighted and endlessly entertained by this latest adventure featuring some familiar faces and places.
