"The Talisman" by Stephen King and Peter Straub follows the journey of a young boy named Jack Sawyer. Jack embarks on a quest across a parallel dimension known as "The Territories" to save his dying mother. In this mysterious realm, he discovers a talisman that can heal and protect, but it also draws the attention of dark forces, including the malevolent Morgan of Oris. As Jack traverses perilous landscapes, encounters allies and enemies, and grapples with his own fears, he learns about the strength of love, friendship, and the profound connection between worlds.

Sir Walter Scott (15 August 1771 - 21 September 1832) was a Scottish writer of historical adventures whose notable works include "Ivanhoe" and "Waverley". Originally from Scotland, where he studied at the Edinburgh College of Art under Denis Peploe and Elizabeth Blackadder, KEN LAIDLAW spent parts of his childhood in Malaya. After graduating he moved to London, where he now lives. He worked as an art director for a major publishing house for four years, and from then on as a freelance artist. His work has been exhibited at Hamiltons Gallery, the Design Council and Charleston House, and has been catalogued and sold by Sotheby's at two sales in 1988 and 1997.
