Hello everybody,
first of all, excuse my English. I'm german and not a native speaker.
I have already read a lot of threads here and registered yesterday.
I'm not only new to this forum, but also new to SK books.
I have watched a lot of movies, some good some bad. But the good ones always thrilled me.
This summer there was a two hrs. documentation about Stephen King on TV and I casually said to my wife, that it seems, that I have to read a SK book eventually.
On the next day I had forgotten about it.
But my wife didn't and I got Mr Mercedes from her as my birthday gift some weeks ago.
I have finished it around one week ago and what can I say ? I was absolutely excited.
I do not know, if I would like the supernatural style of Stephen in other stories, but this crime novel style is the best I have read during the last years.
Therefore my first question; What should I read next, if I like this style ? 'Joyland' perhaps ? What would you recommend ?
This was my brief introduction. I look very much forward to discussions and informatons on this site.
BTW; I'm a 52 years old german engineer living in the Southwest of Germany near the Mercedes factory But this - repeated mentioning of 'german engineering' - was not the reason, why I liked this book so much
Best Regards
Martin
