Summary: Send The Kids To Bed!
Review: Stephen King's, The Dead Zone, is a fascinating mixture of science, medicinal, and psycological theory all stirred into one.This book is very intriguing, however; if you're into hardcore horror this isn't for you. If you want a book that is graphic in detail but yet not too frightening you'll love this.I would NOT recommend this for young children because this isn't some namby-pamby written book with " Shoot! or Darn!", no King wrote this with feeling.The Dead Zone is reallistic in the fact that everything inside the cover is possible,that is what may scare you.John Smith is a high school teacher who wakes from a coma with the ability to touch someone and know everything about them. Read It!

Summary: Beautiful Love Story
Review: I love every aspect of the Dead Zone, the character of John Smith is so endearing and his illfated love affair...His psychic ability is fascinating and also is his dilemna. The subplot with the serial killer is really scary. I do confess to liking the movie better but that is a testament to Christopher Walken's haunting portrayal. Its great early King and a must read.

Summary: Enter The Dead Zone
Review: I had gotten this book at a local second hand shop, bringing it home, expecting the exact same thing as the movie. But, there were many quirky details different to the movie. You want my advice? Buy this book.

Summary: Scared my pants off... literally
Review: This impressive bit of work is about a psychic high school teacher who awakens from a coma and solves crimes. The author of this book, I believe his name is Steve Kingsley, he is a mastermind! I mean, how could a guy think up all this wacky stuff? This guy makes me want to write horror novels because I think it would help me get girls, and maybe I might get invited to a party or something. As it is now though, I know what I'm going to do, I'm going to read another one of Steve Kingsly's books. If you want to read one of them then you should beacause they are really good. Oh, and I heard that it's based on a true story or something. And I forgot to mention that my uncle is pyschic and he really liked this book too.

Summary: The Dead Zone screams not to be put down
Review: The book might as well have been glued to my palms, for I found myself unable to relinquish it back onto the nightstand. Johnny a poor soul that longs for his once normal life before his coma of over 4 years is plagued by fierce headaches and visions of people's future. S. King is my Jesus and I read his books like the Bible. The Dead Zone is an enthralling tale of lies, decite, and a spite of terror, but the only way to get a taste of this is to read the book for yourself. -Bonappetit.

Summary: Powerful and sad
Review: Let it not be said that Stephen King only writes pure horror! "The Dead Zone" is definitely frightening in parts, but it is not a horror novel. The scariest thing in the book is the all-American Bible salesman turned Presidential candidate who is unable to control his dangerous rage. An excellent book, a love story full of drama, cultural satire, and suspense.

Summary: This was one of my first SK books and one of my favorites!
Review: "THE DEAD ZONE" was spectacular! After being hit by a milk tanker in his VW bug, Johnny is in a coma for 4 1/2 years. But once he comes out of his coma a startling thing happens. This book was very good and made me think a lot about the supernatural. I loved the movie with Christopher Walken. Read this-it's great! If you like this you should try: CUJO, FIRESTARTER, and CHRISTINE.
