Charlie Decker, after hearing he's been expelled, takes a gun from his locker, sets a fire, and then returns to his classroom to shoot a teacher. The book is short, barely clocking over 200 pages, and from Charlie's perspective the reader tracks his holding his classmates hostage, one-upping authori...

This reads just as I expected it to – very early Stephen King. It’s weird, it’s graphically violent, it f***s with your head, but it has a lame wtf ending and is not quite absorbing enough to prevent the reader from thinking how unlikely it is that real people would behave this way. Not the murderou...

You can tell this was a very young King. His signature style is there, but definitely not as refined or brilliant as I've come to know him. I found myself skimming a lot of passages that was just unnecessary and long winded, but overall the book was okay. I'm not quite sure if there's any other mess...

When compared to most of the rest of the Stephen King canon, Rage is a strange case for a few reasons. It was the first novel published under the name Richard Bachman, a pseudonym King took on early in his career to prevent market saturation. The novels written under the Bachman name were leaner and...

Rabia review en español en mi blog: Click aquíRage was the first book that King published under the pseudonym Richard Bachman and it's probably one of his most controversial works to date. It's the story about Charles Decker, a disturbed high school kid that goes berserk and takes his classmates as ...

Do sięgnięcia po tą pozycję zachęciła mnie tematyka i miejsce akcji – wiedziałem, że "to musi być dobre!". Z początku nieco się zawiodłem, pierwsze strony książki wydawały się być nieco amatorskie. Później akcja przyspieszyła i (nie wiem czy to wyłącznie moje odczucie) sposób przedstawienia świata t...

An all time favorite. The dialogue from start to finish is brilliant. I read this story in [b:The Bachman Books|10617|The Bachman Books|Stephen King|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1374049003s/10617.jpg|1412598] but I'd love to own a copy of this paperback.

OK, so while I like Stephen King, the only reason I read this book is because he mentioned it in his "GUNS" essay. This book was pulled from print at his request because of the correlation to school shootings, and he felt something needed to be done.While I respect (but disagree with) his views on t...

"Gniew" czyli szalony (?) Charlie z bronią w dłoni robi darmową sesję terapeutyczną swojej klasie. Muszę przyznać, podobnie jak czytelnicy w pozostałych opiniach, że tłumaczenie stoi na najwyższym poziomie. Świetna książka. Aż żal nie mieć na półce jednego z tych dziewiętnastu (jakżeby inaczej) fano...
