From A Buick 8 : A Novel

Rating:
Summary: An exercise in writing and nothing more...
Review: If this book were not written by Stephen King nobody would read it except his creative writing instructor. Skill in characterization, metaphor and dialog plus an unusual narrative structure don't add up to anything more than an experiment gone wrong. It probably should never have been published. 2 STARS for skill in composition, nothing for story or motivation.

Summary: The Pennsylvania State Police Have Problem
Review: Where did this weird replica of a Buick come from? Was the portal made by the same characters in "Hearts of Atlantis"? If it was, why didn't they have a problem breathing our atmosphere? Will King eventually tie it all together like he did with the entire "The Gunslinger" series? The whole point of the book is, sometimes you have to accept the fact that you aren't going to find an answer.
