[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I loved short story collection- Nightshift[/quote] YES. Masterful at scaring the crap out of you in 15 pages.[/quote] He’s a much better short story writer than a novelist, I think, and IMO horror works better in that format anyway. Some of his novels are quite good, but others get out-of-control or way too bloated. I’m looking at you, The Stand (which King re-wrote to make it even more bloated; if he’d cut about 150 pages out of the original instead it would have been tight and much better I think.). He might even be better writing nonfiction, On Writing is quality work, and he’s got a non-fiction piece about little league baseball in one of his collections that is just superb. [/quote]
