This is classic Stephen King: something Very Bad happens, world goes to shit, a small group of survivors try to make their way across a hostile but familiar landscape, freaky things happen, gore, death, the good guys kinda sorta win in the end, but not cleanly. There could be a sequel but King doesn...

My original rating was three stars, but overnight it dropped to a mere two stars. Why? Well, I figure that during the last 50 pages of a Stephen King book I should be turning pages like a crazy man, but I was bored! Plus, I didn't feel emotionally invested in these characters, even the father/son re...

Cell did not disappoint. Okay, maybe the ending, just a smidgen, but not enough to dock the rating. King offers an interesting take on the zombie sub-genre, one that I'm still thinking about. These "zombies" scared me more and, as any good horror story should, spoke directly to the current state of ...

I really liked the first half of this book. Kind of like rage virus beasties running around eating people. The second half was like a different, and much worse, novel. Highly disappointing. Overall worth reading but mostly for the first half or so of the book.

Quite enjoyed this story about mobile phones infecting the people using them with some sort of plague that turned them into zombies - classic King!

Zombies, why can't I quit you?I was all jazzed to write some massively immature pun-filled review of this book – you know, something along the lines of “Don't give me any static about this, but I felt like King was really phoning it in” – but now that I've actually read it, I don't feel up to it any...

My very initial reaction to when I first heard about this book (waaaay back in 2006): “Oh, new Stephen Ki—HE’S DOING CELL PHONE ZOMBIES omgthisisgoingtobeawesome.” And then I read the book. To be fair, I do prefer the typical zombie—shambling, festering dead who want nothing more than braiiiiins—but...
