Title: Trading on His Name
Review: Stephen King is in the position where if he bundled up his old junior high notebooks and sent them to his agent, publishers would bid on them.The is the only explanation for THE COLORADO KID.The plot is, "What if there was a murder with mysterious clues that made no sense at all? The end." Gee, a mystery story with no solution! That probably isn't tried more than a hundred times a year by unpublished authors, to be met with form letter rejection every time (wouldn't Form Letter Rejects be a great name for a band?).Written so quickly that King places a Starbucks in 1980 Denver, and since publishers have been too embarassed to edit Mr. King for well over a decade, it stayed in the book.
Is the review positive or negative?
