This is one of those horror tales that gets you by the throat and dosn't let go. Stephen knows how to engross the reader, and get him or her to care about these characters.There were times I was scared to turn the page. So unpredictable as well. The best novel I've read in while!
Excellent book

This is a really fun read and highly recommended. One of those few horror books that have made me not want to put down the book after Ive been reading it for awhile. I will look forward to reading other books by this excellent writer. Ive been into the horror genre since the early 70's and highly recommend this one. I hope this gets turned into a movie eventually it would make a good one.
