I adore Stephen King, especially his early work before he lost his way in the dark. This is a great old fashioned story of the fight between good and evil, his charactisation is excellent, a real pleasure. Throw another log on the fire, fill that glass of red wine to the brim and hunker down in your comfy arm chair, this is one book that you will not want to put down.

This was my first taste of Stephen King - I absolutely loved it. I read it after reading The Passage by Justin Cronin and seemed to be drawn to the apocalyptic theme of the end of the world and the near destruction of the human race. It's a book of survival - not only the day-to-day foraging for food, looking for shelter and keeping warm but also the survival against the evil entity that survives and plans to control what is left of humanity! I was apprehensive as to whether it would be horror-based, as most of his books are, but it wasn't in any sense - more a page-turning thriller!
