This was put in the paperback version of The Bazaar of Bad Dreams but not in the hardback. This is rather mercenary of King and company, especially since the hardback cost more and came out a year before the paperback, and it requires an impatient completist to purchase both books. Anything to make an extra buck, eh? I support capitalism, but you don't have to be a jerk about it. In my mind those are now two different books: The Bazaar of Bad Dreams and The Bazaar of Bad Dreams.5 or something. But it's no biggie if you have a computer, for you can read this for yourself rights chea. I will not be buying the paperback after all, ya money grubbers, so TAKE THAT!

 Gary Barlow, mmmph! And he's going to have a cameo in Star Wars: The Last Jedi! Oh come on, I know I've strayed from the review for minute, but can't I even look at the pretty boys? No? Fine. Damn stream of consciousness. 
 Anyway, something else to get out of the way: A 13 year old in 2016 with an iPhone saying "Whoo, far out." Cute, SK. Or has that bit of slang reinserted itself into American vernacular after a 50 year hiatus? It's quite possible; I'm hardly ever hip to the haps. I'm a walking anachronism myself and have been since birth (or since I learned to walk, rather), so I'm not complaining, but I know I'm not mainstream. Almost everything Stephen King has put out in the last five or so years has one example that shows the world has moved on and left him struggling to keep up, and I always get a kick out of finding that example. This one is minor compared to the ones in Doctor Sleep and Mr. Mercedes, but it was still there. Thanks for the chucks. 
 As for the story itself, I enjoyed it. There's a lot of mystery that doesn't get explained, and while that enraged me in The Colorado Kid, I think it works fine here mostly because this is a short story and not a pointless novel. A kid interviews his great grandfather, and gramps tells him about a dangerous something he got from his mother. It's dangerous in the way fire is dangerous; as long as you respect it, you'll be fine. If you get careless with it, then you're apt to be hurt or killed. The difference between what happens to the great-grandfather and his mother is proof of that. (view spoiler)[Would I have told my great-grandson where to find this thing? I don't know. Some things are better left alone, but some unsuspecting person would've eventually found the thing, and it's probably better that it be someone who's prepared for its wonders. (hide spoiler)] 
 And since stream of consciousness seems to be running the show today, I'll leave you with this little ditty. I told you I don't belong in this day and age.
