The most remarkable storyteller in modern American literature. - Guardian America's greatest living novelist. Scary and often profound - Mail on Sunday, Horror Book of the Month King's gift of storytelling is unrivalled. His ferocious imagination is unlimited. King is a very remarkable and singular writer.
