He writes in all kinds of genres. I just this week got a copy of his latest novel MOON LAKE, which I'm guessing is some kind of noir-esque mystery. I haven't read any of his horror, which may be the genre for which he is best known.

>>18473455
there are far better authors than Stephen King, much of King's writings is drivel

Read John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath or Of Mice & Men,

or Mark Twain's Life on the Mississippi, plus Tom Sawyer and the Huck Finn books are a decent pair
