Take a closer look at the new novel and the King books you may want to read before diving in below. All six of the King books related to Never Flinch are in the B2G1 promotion in either paperback or hardcover. After reading about Never Flinch and the other books featuring one of its protagonists, you can check more B2G1 free King books or editions with abnormally low prices thanks to coupon deals. King has multiple exciting books on the horizon, and you can read about those below the deals. Note: Amazon says the coupon deals expire July 17 and may not be available for all customers. The B2G1 sale is expected to run through tomorrow, July 12.

King's new novel has two main story threads that will eventually converge as you make your way through the 448-page hardcover. Set in a fictional town called Buckeye City, Never Flinch's high-concept plot is kicked into motion by a letter sent to the police department from an unknown man. The letter writer vows to kill 13 innocent people and one guilty person, which he claims is a response to a separate death of an innocent man.

Detective Izzy Jaynes is tasked with investigating the threat. King's new protagonist will receive assistance from a private investigator who will be very familiar to constant readers: Holly Gibney.

Holly is the link that ties the intersecting stories of Never Flinch together. During the investigation to find the letter writer, Holly is hired as a bodyguard for Kate McKay, a woman's rights activist who is being stalked while on a national speaking tour.

Never Flinch is the seventh Stephen King book featuring Holly Gibney. King has referred to Gibney as one of his favorite characters, so she could very well turn up in future books, too. Knowing Holly's backstory will enhance your reading experience, but Never Flinch is technically a standalone novel.

Even though you don't technically need to read any of the other King novels featuring Holly Gibney, all of them are great and well-worth your time.

King regularly provides key background info on Holly's previous investigations at various points throughout each book. While this makes it easier for new readers to follow along, you should keep this in mind if you haven't read all of the earlier stories featuring Holly. If you don't want to stumble upon major plot spoilers, you should read the books in chronological order as listed above.

Holly, the aptly titled 2023 book, is the first and only full-length King novel where Holly is the sole main protagonist. It follows her investigation into mysterious disappearances in a quiet Midwestern town.

Holly Gibney first appeared in Mr. Mercedes (2014), Book 1 in King's Bill Hodges Trilogy starring a retired police officer. Holly's presence increased in the two sequels, Finders Keepers (2015) and End of Watch (2016).

The private investigator also played a crucial supporting role in The Outsider (2018), a supernatural horror novel that was adapted into a pretty good HBO series. She's also the main character in the title novella in King's story collection If It Bleeds (2020).

Stephen King Hardcover Book Deals for Prime Day

In addition to the crime novels starring Holly Gibney and Bill Hodges listed above, Amazon has many other King novels and collections in its B2G1 sale. This includes hardcover editions of several of King's older titles, a few of which have dust jackets and cover art matching the hardcover edition of The Shining. 'Salem's Lot, one of the best 20th century vampire novels, is one of the novels with this style. You can also get a matching edition of Carrie, which was published in 1974 as King's debut novel. Hardcover editions of The Stand and Night Shift (a collection) also have this theme; while they aren't featured in Amazon's B2G1 promotion, each one is steeply discounted to prices rarely seen for these editions.

Several of King's recent novels beyond the Holly Gibney books are either B2G1 free or on sale for bargain prices with additional coupon discounts. The 2022 novel Fairy Tale is essentially King's take on Narnia, and the hardcover edition is only $12. Fairy Tale was quite the departure from his 2021 novel Billy Summers, a fast-paced crime novel without any fantastical or supernatural elements. Billy Summers is arguably his best work within the genre, and it's eligible for B2G1 free. You'll also find King's 2024 collection of short stories, You Like it Darker, for just $11 with a coupon deal.

Upcoming Stephen King Books

As mentioned, there are a number of Stephen King books and box sets releasing in the coming months. You can check those out below.

Another all-new book that should be on the radar of longtime King readers is The End of the World As We Know It: New Tales of Stephen King's The Stand. Releasing August 19, this anthology features stories by dozens of contemporary authors set in the same world as King's longest and arguably best novel. King wrote the introduction for this 800-page doorstopper. If you want to refresh your memory ahead of its release, Amazon has the excellent hardcover edition of The Stand for over $30 off right now.

King fans will also soon be able to add a new box set featuring three of his older horror novels to their display shelves. Titled Classic King Box Set 1, the upcoming paperback collection contains the latest editions of Christine, Cujo, and Pet Sematary with vintage artwork on the covers and slipcase. All three of those editions are included in Amazon's B2G1 free sale. Though it's the only confirmed set so far, it would appear that Scribner is planning on releasing multiple Classic King Box Sets. The design of the Classic King Box Set is far cooler than the 2019 collection titled Stephen King: Three Classic Novels. That said, the latter contains Carrie, 'Salem's Lot, and The Shining and is available for only $26 (was $57) at Amazon. Classic King Box Set is up for preorder for $46.39 (was $58) ahead of its July 29 release.

King's second children's book, a reimagining of Hansel and Gretel, will be published by HarperCollins on September 2. It's geared toward early elementary schoolers and is illustrated by Maurice Sendak. King's only other children's book is Charlie the Choo-Choo, a picture book for toddlers written under the pen name Beryl Evans. The book and its author originally appeared in King's dark fantasy series The Dark Tower. If you haven't read King's longest series, Amazon has The Dark Tower 8-Book Box Set for $68.90 (was $161).
