I always liked this bit: “…hideous hot sandwiches available at the little convenience store…the meat in these sandwiches usually looked like toasted skin grafts…”

An underrated work in my opinion.

I am happy to say that I read this before it was revealed to be King. My aunt bought it for me for a XMAS present. Read it in one sitting and loved it. Can't say that that I knew it was King, but I immediately went out and Rage and The Running Man in PB.

1. One of only a couple that will receive this rating from me. That said, it is not THE worst, but one I would never recommend to anyone.
