Excellent

Stephen Leather has done it again! What? you may ask - written another brilliant Dan "Spider" Shepherd book that's what!

I admit that I am a fan and reading an instalment in the turbulent life of Spider is like putting on a pair of comfy shoes but don't for one minute think reading one of these books is easy and boring, far from it - you need to keep your wits about you as you will be in for a bumpy ride.

With fantastic characters, a very relevant and plausible story-line and twists and turns, this is one book you won't want to miss but that ending ... oh Mr Leather, why? I almost cried!

My thanks to Hodder & Stoughton via NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest review.

This film started well for me,the introduction of the losers club members now all grown up and having left (bar one of them) derry many years ago.Then they return and though unconvinced at the start that pennywise has returned they are eventually convinced and begin to prepare for the showdown with the evil clown.

The running time for me was to long by at least 30 minutes,certain scenes could have easily been cut and would not have been missed and some of the CGI monsters were laughable.The way pennywise is finally defeated in the end was a bit of a let down,certainly not what I was expecting.

The actors were great in their roles though,especially bill hader as richie and the stephen king cameo was very funny.
