Everything's Eventual by Stephen King

Dinky is a young man with a rare talent; one that only three thousand people on earth can claim: he can kill people and animals with drawings. Whether using chalk on a sidewalk or sending the drawings through email, the images come to Dinky from a place he discovered as a child. After being recruited by a secret organization, his life seems to be pretty easy. One look at a newspaper turns it all upside down and he suddenly isn’t sure that that is the life he wants.

In this short book, Stephen King brings up the topics of killing for the greater good and anonymous killing. The story presents these topics in an interesting way and shows how taking part in these can impact a person’s innerself. There is quite a bit of foul language and sexual comments. This book should be read by adults who feel they can bypass the language and sexual statements. Overall, the thoughts on these topics is interesting.
