Il Re Giallo

The King in Yellow is a collection of various short stories.

The first few start off amazingly, detailing the madness and strangeness of the King in Yellow. However, after that, the stories don't really focus on it as much. There is still strangeness, and skilled writing of course, but I just didn't enjoy them quite as much.

Overall, they're great stories though, and I'd recommend reading at least the first few.

This is a really random collection of stories. I read this on the Serial Reader app, so I didn't really know much about it when I went into it. As I progressed, I had this idea that it was going to be a collection of stories that in some way all had The King in Yellow in them, but that wasn't the case. The stories also aren't all the same genre.

My two favorite stories out of the bunch are the one about the guy in the church who sees the same guy twice and the story about the guy who gets lost in the moors, Phillip. The final story wasn't too bad either, except it ended without any sort of resolution regarding Hastings. It could have been a good story but it just wasn't finished.
