Last rung on the ladder from Night Shift really shows his depth as a writter and its not even horror.<BR/><BR/>PS.

This book sounds so familiar and yet I don't really think I've read it. I do want to put it on the list for R.I.P. III though!Carl V.

I've missed your Monday story posts and look forward to hearing about the other stories in this collection.

I've always loved them, especially Stephen King. I think I will go back and reread his books. (The Stand, I've actually read 3 times!!) I was sure I had read this before. Then I started it and it was SO unfamiliar. Maybe I'm just losing it in my old age!!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05055676171075203563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5179077428618811016.post-51286927650035212982008-03-10T09:34:00.000-06:002008-03-10T09:34:00.000-06:00Oooh...that sounds like a great book you picked up...Oooh...that sounds like a great book you picked up there at the library! I know I've read Jerusalem's Lot before, but I'll be darned if I can remember it. I could really stand to reread some of his older stories, too.Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15429881953804634592noreply@blogger.com
