But he carries a heavy load. His mom was killed in a hit-and-run accident when he was ten, and grief drove his dad to drink.</p> <p>Charlie learned how to take care of himself - and his dad. Then, when Charlie is seventeen, he meets a dog named Radar and her aging master, Howard Bowditch, a recluse in a big house at the top of a big hill, with a locked shed in the backyard. 'sometimes strange sounds emerge from it. <br /><br />Charlie starts doing jobs for Mr. Bowditch and loses his heart to Radar.</p> <p>Then, when Bowditch dies, he leaves Charlie a cassette tape telling a story no one would believe. What Bowditch knows, and has kept secret all his long life, is that inside the shed is a portal to another world.<br /><br />King's storytelling in Fairy Tale soars. This is a magnificent and terrifying tale about another world than ours, in which good is pitted against overwhelming evil, and a heroic boy - and his dog - must lead the battle.</p>
