Summary: Deserves More Credit
Review: This, my 12th King novel, definitly ranks up there in the top 5.
If anyone dares say that Stephen King cannot write serious literature, then he has not read "Roadwork."
While not horror in the vein of Pet Semetary or Salem's Lot, Roadwork focuses on the unthreading of an average middle-class man, who becomes victim to progression. A man who has to relocate his work and home to another side of town because of a highway project, begins acting strange, and slowly loses his grip, and becomes "unplanted."
The character development is so rich that it is scary. Those who are strict adhereers to the horror genre may not get much out of this, but those who enjoy fiction in general, and who have an appreciation for the subtle details which make for a complete literary experience, will want to indulge in this poignant world of anti-progression.

Summary: a really stupid book
Review: Well, the begining is really boring. But I continued to read. I hoped something interesting would happen, but nothing really did. The whole book is about a guy that is crazy. In the end, he blows himself up, which is the best part because thats when the book stops. If you read this review, I suggest you don't bother wasting your money on this poor excuse of a book.

Summary: Chilling
Review: With chilling efficiency Stephen King describes the last weeks of a man who is going mad. Not a word is wasted in this story which is airtight and has that disturbing feeling of "real".I think this is a good example of Stephen King's ability so see right into people and to bring out what hurts the most. Definitely recommended.
