Ever wanted to manage your Stephen King collection properly? Ever wanted to know exactly what King stories and obscure appearances you have, or have read? Ever wanted to know what King stories and obscure appearances you don't have, or haven't read?
This is the resource for you. The first ever Stephen King collector's guide with pages you can print and complete to match your collection (see Sample Entries).
The Stephen King Collector's Guide is a CD-ROM containing .PDF files you can print! The CD-ROM works on both PC and Apple computers, with files opening automatically as Adobe Acrobat .PDF files. Use and navigation is very similar to The Complete Guide to the Works of Stephen King.
The authors have compiled over 1000 Stephen King print titles - novels, books of non-fiction, short stories, screenplays, puzzles, stage plays and even recipes - both published and unpublished. The total number of appearances catalogued exceeds five thousand!
For each book, or story, or screenplay, etc. there is a separate page you can print and complete to help maintain your collection. More importantly, each page will allow you to see exactly what King pieces you still need to acquire. See Sample Entries for more.
The Authors have gone to extremes to make this Guide complete - every known appearance of King in English is included for every story. If you really need to know whether you have every appearance of Why We Crave Horror Movies or Nona this is the resource you need.
Designed for use in conjunction with the Authors' Stephen King: The Non-Fiction, Stephen King: Uncollected, Unpublished and Stephen King: A Primary Bibliography of the World's Most Popular Author this is clearly the most valuable collector resource ever to hit the King market.
In addition The Stephen King Collector's Guide includes an Introduction by Rocky Wood; a Foreword by Justin Brooks; King's Never Ending Story, an essay by Rocky Wood; a User's Guide and a full Index.
Here are some sample entries to give you an idea how you could start your own personalised collector files!
