Regarding the comments on Sneakers, just to note (and easily understandable, given the fragmentary nature of it) that he did not include The Reploids from Night Visions 5, which I found the most...
Let me start by saying I enjoyed this novel immensely, although I was surprised of how much the love story dominated parts of the book. As with most of the more recent novels (eg Lisey's Story), I...

Now here's something I collect as well, sf and weird fiction books. This is one of the two pioneering hardcover ventures in Germany, a series called BIBLIOTHEK DES HAUSES USHER which was published by...
I don't know if you're interested in the German publishing history of Stephen King. To put it briefly, after two publishing houses did CARRIE (Schneekluth) and 'SALEM'S LOT (Zsolnay) in hardback,...
Okay folks, got stuck at the publishing house (no in-joke there, I'm a journalist ;-)) and had a notebook crash, but it's nice to see the path along the beam is still there... let's see how to...
