Negative Positive
Title: Not one of his best
Review: Any Stephen King fan would have to admit tha his past few novels, "Green Mile", "Bag Of Bones", and "The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon" were a sort of renaissance for him. His writing and plotting were in peak form. Unfortunately, "Dreamcatcher" fails to keep the streak going. While it starts off fast and furious, it runs out of gas about halfway through. The plot threads seem to unravel at various times. Try as he might, King can't maintain the suspense. Part of the problem may be that he has returned to familiar territory with this novel, and many of his old tricks just don't trick anymore.
