There is a reason why Stephen King is one of the bestselling writers in the world, ever. Described by john Connolly as 'utterly compelling' and by the Daily Express as an author 'who can create an entire world and make the reader live in it', Stephen King writes stories that draw you in and are impossible to put down. First come the days of the plague. Then come the dreams. Dreams that warn of the coming of the dark man. The apostate of death, his worn-down boot heels tramping the night roads. The warlord of the charnel house and Prince of Evil. His time is at hand. His empire grows in the west and the Apocalypse looms. His works plumbs, with unnerving accuracy, the hopes and fears of an entire nation Observer
