Desperation was't bad
The Regulators was the better version of that story. He wrote that under Richard Bachman.
I enjoyed Desperation as well. The tv movie they made from it was just awful though

Yeah, I've read both and I agree.The Regulators was the better version of that story. He wrote that under Richard Bachman.

Found it!! Everything's Eventual (the short story). Truly demonstrated King's genius to me. Just so freaking imaginative.
I read the Jaunt over 20 years ago and it is STILL crystal clear in my mind. The image of the son coming through the other side, insane and white haired because of his choice NOT to follow directions. Great story.I vaguely remember that one. I read that collection a long time ago. I’ve always preferred his short stories and shorter novels. He can get really long winded and boring (looking at you Wizard and Glass)
I really loved The Jaunt. Pretty cool short story
BTW, if you're a fan of King's The Stand, try Robert McCammon's Swan Song. Similar end times concept, by another great horror writer.I love the stand. I have read it 15 times. King lost me a long time ago though.

Yep, swap out viral infection for nuclear annihilation and they are very similar. For some reason post apocalyptic books are very compelling reads.
McCammon is a fantastic author but far more hit and miss than King.
Stinger was also pretty good and Boys Life is one of the best books you ever want to read. The rest, to me, was hot garbage.
