    I'm always saddened by the consistently low ratings this book gets. Maybe because it was my first new King book back in the day, but I loved it. It's in my personal Top 10 for sure. Maybe even Top 5. I love the story, the characters, the writing, the pacing. Awesome book!

    Good, not great. Worth a read for anyone who missed it.
