A 4 from me also. An interesting premise, well executed. Asks some thought-provoking questions.

I love it because it was the first King I read, and I love the truly climactic ending, but on rereading I always find that it's boring at places. Great at other places, though.

Four. I liked it, but it's not in my top ten.

2. I cant give it any higher than that, because I honestly cant remember much about it. I figure that if it failed to imprint itself on my memory any better than that, then must not have thought very highly of it to begin with.
