King Sorrow is Joe Hill's long-awaited first novel in nine years, a sprawling horror epic where college student Arthur Oakes, desperate to free his incarcerated mother from drug-related charges, summons the ancient dragon King Sorrow with his friends to escape threats from local dealers demanding he steal rare books from Rackham College's library. The ritual succeeds but at a Faustian cost: the group must provide an annual human sacrifice to the dragon, or face death themselves, fracturing their bonds over four decades as regrets, betrayals, and escalating horrors unfold. Narrated through multiple viewpoints, the story blends folklore with modern satire on friendship, technology, and shortcuts' perils, evolving from a youthful escapade to a character-driven saga of inevitable tragedy. Hill's prose delivers black humor, visceral tension, and emotional depth, pitting idealism against monstrous consequences in a "soaring epic" that redefines his body of work.
