Which book would you rather re-read: The Talisman or The Shining?

This is the third and final round of our Constant Reader Awards. The top ten books advancing from the first two rounds will be competing in a series of polls against each other, based on re-readability. Every book will face-off with each of the other nine books in the top ten. Polls will last one week.

The winner of each poll will have 0.1 points added to its overall score. At the end of the round the scores will be compiled, giving us our true top ten listing and the winning title for the Best Stephen King Book Ever Published.

Please be sure to vote solely based on which book you would rather re-read in each face/off. If you have not read one or both of the titles, please select he "Never Read" option.

Need to read The Talisman. Before these awards commenced I had no idea that book was so highly regarded. Since it was a collaboration I always thought (mistakenly, I guess) it was a second-tier work.

Wow!!! I find this surprising!!! The Talisman is great but, I consider The Shining as probably King's best overall work!! Just MHO, but I would of thought this to be closer.

Hmmmmmm

The Shining hasn't been faring very well in these polls in Round 3.
