Стивен Кинг - Later

“Stephen King is much more than just a horror fiction writer. And I believe that he’s never been given credit for taking American literature and stretching its boundaries.”

“To my mind, King is one of the most underestimated novelists of our time.”

“King possesses an incredible sense of story… [He is] a gifted writer of intensely felt emotions, a soulful writer in control of a spare prose that never gets in the way of the story… I, for one (of millions), wait impatiently to see where this king of storytellers takes us next.”

“An absorbing, constantly surprising novel filled with true narrative magic.”

“It grabs you and holds you and won’t let go… a genuine page turner.”

“Blending philosophy with a plot that moves at supersonic speed while showcasing deeply imagined characters… an impressive sensitivity to what has often loosely been called the human condition.”

“You surrender yourself… King engulfs you… and carries you away to 4AM page-turning.”

“Enthralling… superb.”

“A spellbinder, a compulsive page-turner.”

“Faultlessly paced… continuously engrossing.”

“By far the world’s most popular author… He never seems to use up the magic.”

“A literary triumph… Read this book.”

“Superbly crafted… extraordinary.”

“His writing has a lyricism, an evocative descriptive sweep… It’s a gift.”

“Dazzlingly well written.”

“King is a terrific storyteller.”
