I have the CD version on order but will also be grabbing this one. It's The Stand!

I really like what PS is doing with this. I'd be tempted to pick it up if I didn't already have the CD edition on order.

Originally posted by Martin View PostThat is pretty standard fare for PS books. I greatly prefer CD books and I have the Artist Edition Of The Stand coming from CD but I may still have to spring for this one.

Salem's Lot was my first King book. I did buy the PS edition of that and I actually like it, but I'm passing on this one in favor of the CD edition.

Originally posted by Dave1442397 View PostThe Stand and 'Salem's Lot were the first two King books I read, but I can't remember which one I read first.
I was home sick from school, and asked my Mom to pick up a few books from the library.
I have no idea why she picked Stephen King books, as she wasn't all that comfortable with my burgeoning horror collection, but she came home with those two books, and I read them both in two days.
There were 734 pages in that edition of The Stand.
While in America for the summer of '85, I picked up a Rand McNally atlas of the US, and the next time I read The Stand, I followed the journey on the map.
I have no idea how many times I've read both of those books...at least 20 times each, I'm sure. Maybe more.
