    As soon as they identified aliens as their captors, I was getting a bad vibe in that it suddenly felt like a grander, darker rip off of 'The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street'. When it ended up being...

    I really liked it, I think it will stand amongst King's best works in years to come. It was a really solid book from start to finish, compared to some of King's books which can fizzle out at the end...

    Also, something else that might suggest Under the Dome isn't quite connected to other books, at one point early on, Joe McClatchey is looking online at reaction to the Dome and comes across a theory...

    'Fool' might be a harsh, insulting word for it, but having the obviousness of it pointed out to me doesn't really make me love it more. The book just could've been a heck of a lot shorter, and I...

    I don't know if you can say that ALL the books are truly connected. At least, specifically, I don't think the universe of "Cell" really lends itself to have happened a few years ago in this book.

    That's awfully tempting, but I'd really like to have it on release date, so I'll just go to Wal-mart and spend a few more dollars to buy it in store. Too bad they don't have release date delivery.

    The book was dedicated to George Romero, associating the phone-crazies with zombies was surely intentional.

    I really liked Cell quite a bit, it had a very visceral feel that hooked me in. It was...

    Right, exactly.

    It seems like something, like a few other elements, that you just have to go along with and try not to analyze and pick apart too much.
