    My review... spoilers

    ...this review, SK works are above all, a thinking person's horror. The same term has been applied to the works of satiric horror author Bentley Little, and I can't argue with that (though Little's works seem to be in a slump currently in my opinion). But it applies even more so to Stephen King...

    When Stephen King goes too far

    ...I agree, he has, I think. I agree too with the sentiment about some earlier stuff...more EC than anything else. (Someone mentioned Bentley Little: I'll tell you, I love him, he is afraid of nothing, but there was one thing in his latest collection of short stories that even I had to pause...

    When Stephen King goes too far

    Jack Ketchum, in the horror genre, was one of the best. Red is his dark masterpiece.

    When Stephen King goes too far

    I think "too far" is and should be for the reader to decide. Have you ever read Jack Ketchum or Bentley Little? Both are very popular horror fiction writers, and both take things so much farther than Stephen King. I even commented to the BF once about how the subject of a story by Bentley...

    Who is your favourite horrorwriter AFTER King?

    ...i call it a tie between McCammon and Simmons. Hill might reach there in a few years. If you looking for an easier read there is Bentley Little, very competent but not too long. And Adam Neville. Their stories are simpler, mot as komplex as the before mentioned. And if youre loking for dark...

    Who is your favourite horrorwriter AFTER King?

    Tough question. If we're talking novels, I really like Robert R. McCammon but I also like Bentley Little, Ramsey Campbell, and of course Joe Hill. Tons of short story horror masters, too many to list.

    What Are You Reading? Part Deux

    Finished University by Bentley Little. It was ok. I didn't like it as well as others of his that I've read. This one seems to be missing his humor or the humor in this one misses the mark.

    Which King Book Sold The Best?

    ...phenomenon, as well as authors with outsized platforms for promotion. A pure, original, non-branded author would have a difficult time replicating King's success arc when he was still young in the publishing game. Otherwise, someone like Bentley Little should be selling millions in hardcover...)

    The Year of Cemetery Dance 2018

    King has in his publishing contracts with his main publisher that he has permission to publish limited editions in small publishing runs with small publishers. It's one of his many ways of giving back to the folks and/or companies that helped him get books published in the early days of his...

    The Year of Cemetery Dance 2018

    ...print. I wanted to buy one of his, and that one you posted 'Smoke and Mirrors'. I'm going to get a couple of the novels on there by Bentley LIttle. I don't understand how they can publish King's books on there and also publish them through mainstream publishers. I like the covers on many of...
