The Stand

Any one here besides me actually read the book The Stand by Stephen King? I got done with it a few days ago and it was really good. Number one on my top ten list of fiction books.

Never heard of it...

Never heard of it? It was an awfully big selling book, but you do live in Italy, so they might not even have it. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi.../Stand1990.jpg
Ring any bells?

First lets start with this, have you ever heard of Stephen King? He also wrote IT, Christine, Carrie, 1408, Salem's Lot, Cujo, and lots of other well known books.

Ummm......No.

Well, look him up, see if you can find some of his books, they're really great, but a little long though lol. The Stand was 1,053 pages long. The one I'm reading right now, IT, is 1,023 pages or something like that. Some of them like Misery and Christine are shorter, more in the 300-500 page range. Great books really though.

my teacher said he had a famous series the dark tower something?

Yeah, he has like seven books that series. But come on, someone has to know something else about him, I mean come on, he is the King of Horror. The Stand was one of his biggest best selling books.

Nah, I'd rather read Star Wars Commandos...

You really should try d=some of his books though.

They don't sell'em in Italy...
