I guess die-hard King fans would love this book. I've enjoyed many of his books, though Desperation isn't in my top 10. I felt it was too long, first of all. After finishing the book I had a feeling I read this before?(shades of The Stand and It). King will never write himself into a corner or worry about explaining things? he simply has the (evil) force do anything it wants to do (it doesn't have to make sense) until it meets a more powerful (good) force ? in this book, God ? and the standoff begins. To me, King brought God into the plot of this book more than any others I've read, which was somewhat interesting.
