I found
Desperation okay--it had a good monster, if not the greatest protagonists--but
The Regulators was quite bad, and the whole alter egos / alternate universes shtick connecting the two books didn't add up to anything.
Under the Dome, like I said, had a certain B-movie entertainment value mostly owing to the premise, not the characters or plot (though whatsisname at the meth lab was an okay reprise of the Trashcanman). I'd call it unremarkable, whereas Dreamcatcher and The Regulators produced an active stink.
