It's more of an odd kinda fantasy than horror/thriller.. I really enjoy it, have read it a couple of times now. The first book (also the shortest) can put people off due to the weirdness, but if you can get through that and into the 2nd, its a fantastic series. If you've read or watched a few of his other books/movies, it becomes more interesting but I won't go into that due to spoilers

I also really enjoyed The Stand, The Dark Half, Under The Dome and 11.22.63.
FYI I'm not really a fan of horror, but I do enjoy a good thriller. My most-read genres would have to be SF/F
actually i was kind of waiting to see if The Dark Tower stuff would come up! i ran across it on some SK list, so it was on my radar just a bit.

so, sounds like my SK list is:
The Stand
11/22/63
Dead Zone
Dark Tower
