Title: A $... Disappointment
Review: As a fan of Stephen King for over 20 years, I bought this bookwith high expectations but have been heartily disappointed by it. Across between "The Tommyknockers" and "Invasion of theBodysnatchers," "Dreamcatcher" chronicles the tiredworld of ET's attempting to take over the world. Two-dimensionalcharacters do not help the story. I knew and cared about every singlecharacter in "The Stand" but I kept getting the relativelyfew characters in "Dreamcatcher" mixed up. Stephen King'sfascination with secret government operations is also gettingold.This book reads like a first draft and lacks the carefulcharacterizations and brilliant plots of books like "TheTalisman," "The Shining", and so many of King's earlyworks. I do not recommend this book.
