No spoilers there, just a brief excerpt from each review which reflects the reviewer's general impression.
Of the 25 reviews, there's 1 "Mixed" and 24 "Liked it" or "Loved it".
Come on, give it a shot. You know you want to.  |
I wanted to more before I found out how many pages there are! Thanks for the review round-up; unfortunately, the criticisms are exactly what made me stop reading Stephen King so many years ago, especially the one about the buildup being better than the payoff. That is a pet peeve.
I think I may try
Colorado Kid or
Blockade Billy to get an idea of more recent Stephen King writing before I decide to read 800+ pages.
