The Eyes of the Dragon is a novel by Stephen King, published for the mass market by Viking in 1987. Previously, it was published as a limited edition slipcased hardcover by Philtrum Press in 1984. The later trade edition was slightly revised for publication. At the time, it was a surprising deviation from the norm for King, who was best known for his horror fiction. This book is a work of classic fantasy, with a clearly established battle between good and evil, with magic playing a lead role. The Eyes of the Dragon was originally titled Napkins.

Famous quotes containing the word eyes:
“You can’t build life the way you put blocks together, Toddy.... Did Knox teach you what makes the blood flow? Did he tell you how thoughts come and how they go, and why things are remembered and forgot?... What makes a thought start?... You don’t know and you’ll never know or understand.... Look, look at yourself. Could you be a doctor, a healing man, with the things those eyes have seen? There’s a lot of knowledge in those eyes, but no understanding.”
—Philip MacDonald, and Robert Wise. Gray (Boris Karloff)
