Title: Not the best from King, but...
Review: Yes, this is not Stephen King's best work. I'm sure his best novels are behind him now, but this is still an enjoyable read and probably much better than most other authors in the genre. I read one of the other reviews from someone who said they'd stopped reading King after Insomnia (which I read as well). I felt the same way after Reading Gerald's Game and stopped reading King for a while, but I found that in the horror genre there weren't many authors who had the ability to make you feel for the characters the way Stephen King did. And considering the volume of work he's produced you have to accept that not all his books will be great. That being said, I did enjoy reading Cell, I did notice some similarity to The Stand, but only in the "end of world" scenario. This book to me was a "Quick King" as it moved fast and took you along with it. I would recommend it to a Stephen King fan, but would suggest other books of his if someone had never read his novels before.
Is the review positive or negative?
