The Stand
by
"The perspective of a Global Flu Virus that wipes humanity entirely isn't much more of a fiction and cautionary tale. If you add the never-ending battle of Good vs Evil, it get's spiced up.

"While my whole generation got scared as children with the TV adaptation, and we blame our fears of clowns on this story, the premise was never more real: "You should only fear Fear Itself." Another basic book to add to the Dark Tower Mythos."

Stories that deeply impressed me are "The Jaunt" (It's eternity in there...) and "Survivor Type" (Just like one of Pavlov's dogs. Drooling helplessly, like a baby. Like a baby.) Also, includes "The Mist" Novella. Another reference to Dark Tower..." See Review |
