Summary: Bedtime story
Review: Suffering from insomnia? Well, no more sleeping pills necessary!All you need is a strict regiment of Tommyknockers before you go to bed. This book is so boring, you'll probably sleep until the following week. On a serious note, this book is interesting, but incredibly slooooooooooooow!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great book
Review: It starts kind of slow, but when it picks up (around pg. 20) you can really get hooked on it. If you are in the mood to read a great book, and have already read The Stand,IT,and The Eyes of the Dragon, then I strongly recommend this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bobbi, who are "They"?
Review: I have read many of King's works -- I am currently halfway through The Stand -- and I have to say The Tommyknockers is and will always be my favorite. The plot itself is great, and makes you believe in the possibility of a planet being invaded by a ghost ship. The details are vivid and make you feel as though you are in the middle of everything, as all of King's stories do, and you develop a more personal relationship with the characters than most authors can create. I think it doesn't matter who you are, there is probably a character in this story you can relate to. All in all, a wonderful story and the ending is AWESOME.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Of the 20 or so KING novels i've read this is #1!
Review: As you will see in the other reviews of this book, you either love or hate this novel. Personally I think it's the best king book i've read, actually I can't decide if I like IT better or not. If your not a sci-fi person you won't like this title. But if your into it, this is by far as good as you can get. I don't reccomend the movie version though, it was really really bad.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A middleman book!
Review: You either love this book or you hate it. If you are looking for classic Stephen King, I suggest you read this book with caution. It is more sci-fi than horror. His description give it horror qualities but his storyline give it sci-fi qualities. I did like this book because it was a change of pace for him. The Tommyknockers knock on!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Late last night and the night before.......
Review: I Recently read the Stephen King novel, Tommyknockers, and I enjoyed it thouroughly. King has a way with words in this novel, And it is now one of my favorite books. The 750 page novel only took me 4 days to complete, and I loved every minute of it. I just could not put it down!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GET THIS BOOK
Review: You'll love all of the characters,and the great details!So if you are a Stephen King fan get this book!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: '50s Pulp Fiction
Review: This is a nice throwback to 50s style "Big Bug" horror shows: some unknown technology alters the natural order. Some of the paranoia of Body Snatchers picks at you as everyone really seems to be a bit different. The scenes where outsiders try to deal with the mutating natives are great. Science fiction, in that old, the aliens are out to kill us all, tradition. Good pulp fiction.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Tommyknockers, Tommyknockers, knocking at the door.
Review: Gee, I don't know what to say about this book. The Tommyknockers, I think, was a good book, but by far not the best King novel. I don't suggest you buy this book. If you're looking for a good horror read let me give you some recommendations: Needful Things, IT, Christine, and The Shining. But if you like a lot of science-fiction I firmly suggest you to read The Tommyknockers. The Tommyknockers is a true novel for all science-fiction readers. Let me give you a brief summary: Bobbi Anderson lived in a tranquil little town named Haven. In Haven everything was peaceful, the perfect place to move your family into. That was until Bobbi stumbled on a space ship buried in the ground. That's were the horror began. Summary over. I think H.G Wells and Arthur C. Clarke fans will enjoy this book, there is even one part in the book were Bobbi and her boyfriend (played by Jimmy Smits in the movie) have a confrontation with one of the martians on the space ship. I think that part was good, the rest you could just fall asleep in, but don't forget to lock your door....The Tommyknockers are out there...

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not his best
Review: Jim Gardiner Has a problem. The entire town is out to get him.
