Status Updates From The Searching Dead

I just realized a reason I find this author so immersive, why nothing pulls me out of the story. There is no actual author presence - there is the story and the characters. You will always know Stephen King is right there with every page; there is an author in charge, who will intrude, even with editorializing. But, other than his style, Ramsey Campbell steps away, and the story does the talking. I love that choice.
