I grew up reading Stephen King. His books fed my love for thrillers and horror stories. I discovered Richard Chizmar and quickly devoured Chasing the Boogeyman and Becoming the Boogeyman. Now both of them put their heads together and wrote this trilogy. I think to fully enjoy the books you need to have read most of King's popular stories because there are Easter eggs sprinkled into all three of the books but mainly the second and third. This trilogy was fun to read but I had a hard time giving it a rating. The first book was amazing and each author's style shined through and complimented each other.The second book was ok but the third book took a huge leap that cheapened the entire trilogy a bit. But it's in the third book that you see how interwoven King's universe was in the entire story. It's a hard call but overall I really enjoyed the trilogy as a whole.
