I agree, Hoopy, from the few King books I've read - mind you I have many more King's on the shelf to be read. The way he's telling is so conversational, you almost feel like that he's sitting next to you, by the fire in the woods in the bleak winter of Maine, telling you all the spooky stories while we sit around him with jaw open, eye glittering... Some suspicious shadows are quietly moving behind the trees... King and pTerry are the two authors I must return from time to time.
