Title: IT'S ALL BEEN DONE BEFORE......
Review: Stephen King came out of retirement and wrote a much shorter version of THE STAND, DESPERATION,and other previous novels all combined. I loved SALEM'S LOT, DESPERATION and many others.Mr. King is not a classic author, but he does write good horror and in his early books - awesome suspense.This book has much gore, which is fine by me, but it is not scary and has no suspense. It starts full force on page one and the main characters are flat and one-dimensional. I just didn't care. A huge yawn. It reads like it has a great purpose and says nothing.I had to put it down before finishing for I had to force myself to read this one and I grabbed a book worth reading.
