Whenever I see the mist over Table Mountain or coming in off the sea, I think of this book and I wonder about what could be hidden in the fog. It's a short but thoroughly disturbing read, and I loved it immensely. I also saw the movie with Thomas Jane, and I'm still in two minds about the different ...

This was a re-read. I listened to The Mist first when I was 12 years old (on cassette, in glorious 3D SOUND!) and remember liking it quite a bit. Then, I read it later on, in my late teens, as part of King's Skeleton Crew collection. It's funny how memory works. One thing about this story that has a...

For the first time ever, I'm disappointed with a Stephen King book. To me, this book was a lot different then anything else I read by King. Maybe because it was a novella rather then one of his normal 1,000 page tomes. There were two things that ruined this story for me. First was the lack of w...

For example: I loved IT (which, seriously, you have to admit it'...

I'm not particularly impressed with King, it has to be said. The story was entertaining enough but his style is a little wooden for my taste. I can see why so many of his books are made into films, it's almost as if it was written with a film in mind, although I haven't seen the film they made out o...

I decided to read this after watching the film. I was expecting the book to be a lot better than the movie, as is common for most books-to-movies. The book wasn't bad, just not what I was hoping for, especially since I had actually enjoyed the movie. This was also my first attempt at any Stephen...
