I just discovered this new author. His name is Stephen King, and apparently he's written a whole bunch of books; imagine that.

So I read this one called "The Stand" and thought it was terrific, and now I'm reading this one called "It," and I'm also quite enjoying it.

So. If you've heard of this Stephen King guy and if you've read any of his works -- what do you recommend I tackle next?

(And to think I thought I'd read everything worth reading...)

I've always liked Stephen King, because, darnit, he knows how to tell a story, and no one else can scare me the way he can.

Of his more traditionally supernatural books, I love The Shining. It terrified me (advice: do not it at three in the morning when everyone else is asleep. It does not work). The Shawshank Redemption was very good as well, albeit in a different way.

Enjoy! Everybody ought to read a little Stephen King, I think, because a lot of people don't know what they're missing.
