I remember reading these when they came out of n their serial form. I don’t think I’ve ever read the book straight through since then. We all know how amazing the movie is, but I had forgotten some of the key differences. We all know that Stephen King is a master of characterization, and the voice of Paul Edgecombe is so spot on.

Book one is such a great set up for what’s to come. If all you’ve done is see the movie you must read the books. They are fantastic.
