Literally just got done reading this one. One word to describe... mindblowing! (SPOILER ALERT!!!) My favorite part was the end when Thad's sparrows ate Stark alive and carried/flew him back to the land of the dead. Stephen your books are addicting, I cant wait to start another.

This was the 2nd Stephen King book I read (my first being Four Past Midnight; which was awesome, by the way), and I was not disappointed. I love anything written by Stephen King, I have a huge collection of his books, and my bookshelf is devoted to King only. The Dark Half was entertaining from start to finish. Everything about George Stark was creepy. This was a very well written book, and I love how King writes in such detail. IMO He is the Best Author Ever!!

A very good book and an OK movie. King's best book, I believe, (perhaps because it was my first SK book) was The Stand. A true classic.

Dark half is the darkest novel Stephen King has ever written.One of the reason is Its written by two authors Richard bachman and Steven King
