oliver: I read this book when it first came out many years ago. It is better now than my first impression long ago.

Sadaf Hamza: The media could not be loaded.  Delivery was very quick, and the book's condition is good as you can see.

lminda: This was the first Stephen King book I ever read. I love how the characters develop slowly into complicated and realistic individuals. Some of the characters are unlikeable and some evolve into better people, hardship reforms them. The story is also well crafted. In the end, I couldn’t stop reading until I had finished it.

Holiday Trains: First read the abridged in 1979. Had forgotten most of the details. Bought the unabridged to follow along with the audio book I gifted family members who drive long distances. I think the abridged might be better. Too much navel gazing in the long version. Also, too much Christianity for my taste. Found myself wondering: were there other, Hindu or Bhuddist or Moslem demons fighting good people of those religions? Also, A bit anachronistic to read a novel of a future 1990 in the year 2023.

Amazon Customer: Read this in High School and again when the unabridged came out. Many years later I had the urge to read it again. It has ALWAYS made me think…what if…how would I…. Maybe I will read it again in another twenty years.

Janie U: This novel is well over 1300 pages, split into 78 chapters. I bought this having recently read another Stephen King novel which I enjoyed tremendously (I think it had been more than 25 years ago since I had read any of his novels when I had loads of them) so decided I would buy some of his other, highly rated books. I wasn't prepared for such a brick of a book so approached this with caution.
Interesting to see that this book was first published in 1978 and, in the midst of a global pandemic, I was curious to see if it would hold up and still feel current.
Stephen King is a master story teller and this is a fantastic story which is told in huge detail. There are an enormous number of characters. I'm not completely convinced they are all necessary although having to make the effort to get to know them all engages the reader into the fast moving plot.
Many people will read this during the COVID pandemic and hopefully it will help to put the current crisis into some perspective. In the book, the virus is highly contagious and kills almost everyone. The description of the virus spreading is a great study into human behaviour and it is interesting to compare the panic to the...

Simon Edwards: Back in 1978, Stephen King was well on his way to becoming the biggest selling author of all time. On the back of three great classics that were Carrie (1974), ‘Salem’s Lot (1975) and The Shining (1977), King had already established himself as the Master of Horror, a title to which, even today, he has become a bit tired with. He had now hit the big time, didn’t need to worry about money or work again – he had achieved his lifelong dream (becoming a full time writer). The Shining had become his first bestselling hardcover novel, perhaps influenced by the fact that Brian DE Palma’s 1976 adaptation of Carrie had become a box office success, allowing audiences to discover King in a new medium that they might not have done so had it not been for the movie.

His first three published novels had been hard-core horror novels, all three contemplating his status as the King of Horror. King’s next novel would be a change of pace. It would still include elements of the horror genre, a genre in which he had spent his entire life surrounded by, even as a child, but his next novel would also have elements of science fiction and would actually become a sociological look at the...
