/lit/ - Literature

O' Patrician, rate this if you will. Is this another pop-novel by King or actually worth the hype?

Favorite horror book?

Is The Stand worth a read?

Which is the best Stephen King book, if I value dark atmosphere and mystery the over character development?

Reading this right now for the first time, about three hundred pages in. Does /lit/ like it? I guess it's alright but I much prefer Pet Sematary so far.

I'd seen the TV series so thought i'd finally get round to reading the book.

Currently reading this.

The dark man had gone back to sleep.
How does the rabbit feel when the shadow of the hawk falls on him like a dark crucifix... and then goes on without stopping or even slowing? How does the mouse feel when the cat who has been crouched patiently outside his hole for the entire day is picked up by its master and tossed unceremoniously out the front door? How does the deer feel when it steps quietly past the mighty hunter who is snoozing away the effects of his three lunchtime beers? Perhaps they feel nothing, or perhaps they feel what Tom Cullen felt as he rode out of that black and dangerous sphere of influence: a great and nearly electrifying sunburst of relief, a feeling of new birth. Most of all a feeling of safety scarcely earned, that such great good luck must surely be a sign from heaven.
