Title: Excuse me while I cough up a hairball
Review: I am a cat lover and a lover of good fiction. This book fails to do justice to either subject. King gives us no reason to care about his flat, uninvolving and derivative characters. There is nothing new in this so-called tale and it appears King felt compelled to repeatedly reach for a thesaurus to pad out the gruel-thin narrative. No discernable threat or villain is made clear within the first few chapters. If the so-called protagonists's mission is ever explained, it must be past the first few chapters I managed to wade through. Tell us who the "King and Queen" are and why they are so important, for instance. Nothing any of the characters do within the first 60 pages shows any sign of backbone or heart, nor compelled me to care. Comparisons to Richard Adams or Paul Gallico here are just plain pompous. The author earns one star for finding someone willing to publish this tedious morass.
