Yea.However I really liked getting to know the characters it really is what made the story for me.One of my top 5 reads of last year.

Character development was key - when events begin to hit the fan you're already feeling for all the members in the band.

Currently on the second book of John Birmingham's After America. I decided to re read the first 2 books in preparation to read the third in the series.

Siep, I'm reading "Fables" as the original paperback collections. I just started the War & Pieces storyline. It looks like your still about 20 (original) issues/chapters behind. Such good stuff.

Finished The Tommyknockers; not a bad read. I think the problems that it has are 1) For the first 70-80 pages, King never refers to Bobbi Anderson as "Bobbi" unless Gard is thinking about her. It's alway "anderson". This gives the opening of the book a cold feel to it. Eventually King loosens up, but by that time damage has been done; 2) Gardner is constantly thinking in terms of books or poems he's read; if you added them up, there would probably be close to 10 pages of Gard quoting from other literature. I want to read King's book not a bastardization of others'; and 3) there's a sense of de ja vu surrounding the whole thing--that I've read (or seen) this before.

Still, if you can stick with it, it's entertaining. Not even close to his best, but far from his worst.

Sallying forth into the fray with AD Nauseam by C.W. LaSart.

A true king fan would read the book and make up his or her own mind; not take th word of an old sour puss like meself...

Didn't say I wouldn't read it...said I wouldn't read it next.

Touche! I stand corrected.

That it is.
Aintitcool.com had the first collection as their favorite HC of the year (2009??), so I decided to give it a try.
No regrets since. The fifth collection will be out in a couple of months.
