The Talisman is another book by Stephen King, a collaboration with fellow author Peter Straub. I picked it up out of impulse like a lot of Stephen King books. The book itself is unusual in that it isn’t a straight up horror but rather a work of fantasy with occasional horror elements in it. This is unusual fare for both King and Straub since both are horror writers. As a reader of fantasy novels this intrigued me a lot. The novel follows Jack Sawyer, a twelve year old boy who sets off on a quest to find the titular talisman, which has the power to save his mother from dying. The quest takes him in and out of a land known as the Territories, a land set in a universe parallel to America where everyone has a “twinner” a duplicate who is a parallel for somebody in our world. Throughout his journey his must deal with the villainous Morgan Sloat, a former business partner of his father’s, and his twinner Morgan of Orris.
Bound in cream cloth with gray pictorial endpapers; bright gilt lettering and ruled boxes, with blind-stamped decoration, to the spines and front boards; and a sepia-tone illustration mounted to each front board. Although by no means a major character, he had a standout charisma about him which made him a charismatic and strangely threatening villain throughout Jack s stay in Gardener s school.
These ingredients help to further moisturize and hydrate the skin, leaving it soft and supple. One of the standout features of this body wash is its exfoliating properties. The crushed argan shells work to gently buff away dead skin cells, unclog pores, and improve the overall texture of the skin.

The Talisman
Original issue price in 1984 was $120. This book charts the adventure of a twelve year old boy named Jack Sawyer. The young hero sets out from Arcadia Beach, New Hampshire in a bid to save his mother, who is dying from cancer, by finding an artifact called "the Talisman." The premise of the novel involves the existence of a parallel world to Earth, called "the Territories" (a strange fantasy world with ties to King's "The Dark Tower"). Individuals in the Territories have "twinners," or parallel individuals, in our world. Twinners' births, deaths, and (it is intimated) other major life events are usually paralleled.
The Talisman first took form when Stephen King moved with his family to London in early 1977. It was there he met Peter and Susan Straub, along with their children, and the two writers became friends, both being fans of each other's work. After a short friendship, King and his family left after only three months back to the United States. Straub and King had talked multiple times before about collaborating to write a book, but nothing ever surfaced until ten years after King moved back, when the Straubs moved to the United States as well. According to King, after Straub moved, "the talk got serious," and they began writing. Their literary friendship did not end after the publication of The Talisman. In 1999 they began working on a sequel to The Talisman, dealing with Jack Sawyer as an adult. It was published in 2001, entitled Black House.

Reviews for "Rejuvenate Your Skin with Argan Magic Exfoliating Body Wash"
1. Sarah - 1 star
I was really disappointed with the Argan Magic Exfoliating Body Wash. The exfoliating particles were so harsh and rough on my skin, it actually felt like I was scratching it instead of gently exfoliating. I ended up with red, irritated patches all over my body. Additionally, the scent was overpowering and smelled very artificial. Overall, I would not recommend this product to anyone looking for a gentle and effective body exfoliator.
2. David - 2 stars
I had high hopes for the Argan Magic Exfoliating Body Wash, but it fell short of my expectations. While the exfoliation was decent, I found the consistency of the body wash to be too thick and difficult to spread evenly onto my skin. It also left a residue that made my skin feel sticky and uncomfortable. I didn't notice any significant improvement in the texture or appearance of my skin after using this product. Unfortunately, I won't be repurchasing it.
3. Emily - 2 stars
I didn't have the best experience with the Argan Magic Exfoliating Body Wash. It felt quite drying on my skin and didn't seem to provide enough hydration. The exfoliating particles were too gentle and ineffective for my liking, as I didn't notice any improvement in the smoothness or softness of my skin. The scent was also quite underwhelming and didn't leave a lasting fragrance. Overall, I don't think this body wash is worth the money and I would recommend looking for other options.
