Title: This Is Not King At His Best
Review: This book is not King at his absolute best like "The Talisman", "Carrie", "Desperation". The plot is tightly woven as always, stays on the psychotic and narrow, like always, but there's something there that teases the reader. In this novel, King writes like a tired, exhausted writer, barely able to fashion the tip of his pencil into writing a word. Some of the passages seemed forced, like King was prying them out of his head with a dessert spoon! It just seemed remarkably unbelievable. This isn't new for King, but when a homicidal car started terrorizing people ("Christine"), I was a afraid of my Crown Vic's seatbelt, because he made me believe it. But with "Dreamcatcher", he failed.
