My top 5 King Books.

try some James Herbert ( If you haven't already) UK horror writer who is superb, his book The Dark had me sleeping with the light on for the duration of reading it!

I still think that "Different Seasons" is King's best work. Three of the four "novellas" are unbelieveable read and all three are movies.
"Rita Hayworth & The Shawshank Redemption" which obviously became "The Shawshank Redemption" is one of the best movies out there and basically follows the book to the letter. "The Body" became "Stand By Me" which again mostly follows the book and frickin' awesome. "Apt Pupil" and the movie of the same name is a very cool, dark story althought the movie isn't half as good as the book it's an excellent watch or read whatever. Can't beat the King.

I´ve read a few years ago "The Ghosts of Sleath", not bad at all, but not overwhelming. Will take a look at ebay for "The Dark"

Finished at the weekend "Evil" from Jack Ketchum. Disgusting !

Did you read Haunted? That's the first book in the David Ash trilogy, Ghosts is the 2nd. the 3rd one should be out late next year.

I agree King writes a great novel and I had forgot completely about Apt Pupil!

Maybe someone should although he has wrote so many books it would be hard to narrow down to 10 or so choices.
Mine would certainly be Salem's Lot I would recommend that to anyone.
