Rating: Summary: Better than average... Review: As a fan of SK, I try to read whatever he puts out and am rarely disappointed. This is another of his many good, but not great books.It moves quickly through the story of a writer who's psuedonym takes living form and begins menacing real people. Its well written and an enjoyable read. Some plot lines are left dangling, but all in all the ending is a good payoff and you'll be glad you read it.
Rating: Summary: My FAVORITE Stephen King Novel Review: We all have that alter ego inside of us. We all have pondered if not believed that everyone has a twin somewhere in the world. With this book, we not only get the (in my humble opinion) the best story King has written, but we also get one heck of an insight into the dark caverns of a writers mind. So if you write about what you know... what dark demon DOES lurk in Mr. King's mind?
Rating: Summary: WOW! This book was REALLY twisted but GREAT! Review: I am 14 years old and in the 8th grade and this is the second Stephen King book I have read. I thought the book "The Dark Half" was excellent! Stephen King has such a creative imagination. I really COULDN'T put the book down. I read the 26 chapter book in 5 days. The Dark Half kept you thinking through out the whole book. I don't think there were any boring parts in the book for me. Everytime you think you figure something out you turn out being even more suprised than before. I honestly have to say that I don't think Stephen King has any "bad" books. I know some may be better than others, but I think this is my favorite one. I enjoyed this book so much, that I would love to continue on reading more of his books. I think this has to be the most TWISTED book I have ever read. The book really freaked me out! I don't won't to go into any details about the book, that's up to the readers to find out what they're missing out on.
Rating: Summary: The best! Review: This was the first book I read by Stephen King and it's still my favourite. The story is great and belive me when I say I couldn't put it down. It is really an exciting book and there was no boring part for me. I am planing to read it again soon. I would highly reccomend it to all Stephen King's fans.
Rating: Summary: King Does It Again Review: First off I must confess that I am a huge Stephen King fan. I honestly don't think that King has ever written a "bad" book. Some may be better than others, but even at his weakest King is better than 95% of the popular writers out there today. The Dark Half is King at his best. A truly sacry book that delivers a message at the same time. You don't have to be a Literature major to analyze the point King is trying to make here about the writing process, but that does not make it any less clever. I think that The Dark Half has gone under rated because it was released at a time when King's domination of The Bestseller Lists was starting to peak. Do yourself a favor don't miss out on this great book. You will not be disapointed.
Rating: Summary: one wild ride Review: This one kept me on the edge of my seat. Please, forget the horrible movie that was later made from this work, like many of Kings work it was butchered on screen. The book itself is wonderful example of why millions find his work so entralling. I think Stark is without a doubt one of Kings best villians. (rumor had it he had contemplated writing a book under the stark name...pity it never surfaced I can only imagine the severity of the violence that it would have held.) Just remember...the sparrows are flying again.
Rating: Summary: It Deserves All Fives Stars Review: I would honestly say, "The Dalf Half" is the best book I ever read." Right from the start it was full of great plot twist and turns, it keep me reading for about 450 pages and I'm an A.D.D. thirteen year old. The book itself is about an author who dumps his pen-name to dodge blackmail and framed and terrorized by someone/thing that he has know all his life.
Rating: Summary: "THE DARK HALF" Review: I have never before read such a great story. "The Dark Half" is fulls of strange plot twists and is very suspensful. It is the story of an author who dumps his pen name to dogde blackmail, and finds himself being terrorized by his something or someone he never knew was in him.
Rating: Summary: AAbsolutly Outstanding Review: Absolutly Intriguing. This book opens your mind to a new depth of terror. Steven King yet again shows HIS dark half with this truely outstanding book. This book keeps you thinking even after you are finished reading it. If you are not truly afaraid of the last chapter, then you are not human...
Rating: Summary: A Chiller... Review: This was a SCARY book. if you read this book you will be checking the door and such for a while after you put it down. some people say that it starts of bad but i dissagree it starts of great and once your finched reading part two you are scared out of your skin! this book was a Compelling novel that roars toward on all 12 cylinders and dosent let up! so you better buy this book because i garuantee that you will not be disapointed!
