THE TOMMYKNOCKERS!!! Yes, I finally "read" a stephen king book for my own damn thread! lol.
Actually, I listened to the audio read by Edward Hermann, he was very good. This was one I had never finished. The first go round, I made it to a kid doing a magic act in his yard. I don't know why, but it just lost me.
At one point in my life, I felt this was Stephen's worst book. I don't think that anymore. I actually felt there were some good moments in this story. My only real complaint would be that there were a gaggle of darlings that needed to be killed. But hell, if I wrote like stephen king, I'd want to keep writing too. This book could have been so much better had it been tightened up, and I'm actually kind of surprised that his editors didn't do it or suggest it. Or maybe they did.
I have revamped my list of stephen's books. CELL now takes over the bottom spot. Or wait, maybe The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon.
I own the movie too, a 5 dollar Walmart acquisition. I've never watched it but I will now.
Although I really like Jimmy Smits and Marg Helgenberger I have to warn you not to expect too much from the TV movie.
