However, the reader did not particularly care about "who is the author", and the success of the book proved to the contrary that the parent was a novelist "Stephen King" not at all. It seems that Joe 's novel is not very similar to his father' s novel.

The novel that the youngest child Owen first wrote was a comedy. He is not very interested in the field of father's horror, and he seems to have watched only B-class movies to write a book.
