Title: Stephen King or The X-Files?
Review: After reading over some of the reviews for this book, I noticed that everyone seems to be comparing it Tommyknockers. Dreamcatcher reminded me more of The X-Files. Ok X-Files fans lets see it this plot line sounds familiar. Aliens from space come to Earth to spread an intelligent virus so "it" can take over the planet. King did write an X-File story with Chris Carter a couple of years ago. Maybe Carters influence rubbed off a little more then he knew. But if you're going to borrow from your buddies at least do it with your own style, and that's what King has done. The book is written with Kings familiar characters, locations and dark since of humor. Thank you very much! This might not be one of his most thought provoking stories, like Apt Pupil or Hearts In Atlantis, but it's still a fun ride.
