CONCLUSION

The Waverley Novels are a long series of novels by Sir Walter Scott (1771–1832). For nearly a century, they were among the most popular and widely read novels in Europe.

Because Scott did not publicly acknowledge authorship until 1827, the series takes its name from Waverley, the first novel of the series released in 1814. The later books bore the words "by the author of Waverley" on their title pages.
The Tales of my Landlord sub-series was not advertised as "by the author of Waverley" and thus is not always included as part of the Waverley Novels series.
Scottish literature, the body of writings produced by inhabitants of Scotland that includes works in Scots Gaelic, Scots (Lowland Scots), and English. This article focuses on literature in Scots and in English; see English literature for additional discussion of some works in English. For a discussion of writings in Scots Gaelic, see Celtic literature. Scott chose to publish his later novels as being "by the author of Waverley". His series of works on similar themes written during the same period have become collectively known as the "Waverley Novels".
Edward Waverley, a young British officer who holds his commission in the army of George II of England during the bloody days in 1745 when
Charles Edward, the Pretender, is trying to gain the British throne. Through a set of circumstances, he learns of the young Pretender's cause.
Following the publication of Waverley in 1814, Scott wrote during a five-year period a further eight novels set in seventeenth- or eighteenth- century Scotland. It is through these works that Scott can be said to have invented Scotland.
In terms of his effect on the reputation of his native Scotland, Kelly said Scott "invented a great simulacrum of Scotland; he invented the image of the country". Eighteenth-century accounts of the Highlands characterised them as "treacherous, poor, a hotbed of villains, and barren"
historical novel, a novel that has as its setting a period of history and that attempts to convey the spirit, manners, and social conditions of a past age with realistic detail and fidelity (which is in some cases only apparent fidelity) to historical fact
Like most other novels of its day, 'Waverley' was originally published in a modest set of three volumes and with no illustrations. One of the sets displayed here is in a binding known as 'publisher's boards', just as the volumes would have been originally sold. The novel was published on 7 July 1814.
The Talisman is a 1984 fantasy novel by American writers Stephen King and Peter Straub. The plot is not related to that of Walter Scott's 1825 novel of the same name, although there is one oblique reference to "a Sir Walter Scott novel." The Talisman was nominated for both the Locus and World Fantasy Awards in 1985.[1] King and Straub followed up with a sequel, Black House (2001), that picks up with a now-adult Jack as a retired Los Angeles homicide detective trying to solve a series of murders in the small town of French Landing, Wisconsin.
He has written numerous horror and supernatural fiction novels, including Julia and Ghost Story, as well as The Talisman, which he co- wrote with Stephen King After Wolf is put in "The Box" as punishment, he transforms and rampages through the Sunlight Home, killing several boys before being shot by Sonny Singer, who was aiming for Jack. He then dies in Jack's arms.
The Talisman is the 19th book published by Stephen King, co-written by Peter Straub; it was his 16th novel, and the twelfth novel under his own name. The book was released by Viking on 8 November 1984. It is one of few novels not to be set in Maine or New England; it is set in Wisconsin, Peter Straub's trademark.
