I have not read the tommyknockers yet but I ordered a lot of books and it is included, did you enjoy the tommyknockers, no spoilers please, I have so far yet to run into any stephen king book I didn't like so far the only one I didnt quite enjoy was under the dome and even that I might give another shot
I started on it, but had difficulties. I am going to try and tackle it again though. Give it a fair shot.

I enjoyed it when I read it. This was years ago, when I was younger. For some reason, I think it is a book that is best read when one is younger. As I've gotten older, I do see some of the complaints. But I was absolutely in love with the plot when I read it. There are a lot of great moments in the book. It should have been shorter, though.

I have an autographed copy of the hardcover that I actually read. Got the signature via mail when King was doing that.

I agree with you on that.
