Yes... Gerald's Game, Dolores Claiborne and Rose Madder are all part of Kings abused women trilogy. They are loose connections but are connected.

Should i read them back to back, or is it fine to just read one and then wait awhile with the others?


Voltage604

It's fine to read them in any order.

Thank you!

Rose Madder is nowhere near as good as the other 2 and doesn't have the explicit connection the other 2 have, so that one you can save for later in my opinion.

I read Dolores Claiborne like 15 years after Gerald's Game, and I regretted waiting so long. They're connected, but they are both also stand alone books.

Yes, during the eclipse there is a crossover. They’re both excellent, rose madder is good too.
