Nightmares & Dreamscapes

Created: 02/12/06
Stephen King is 2nd on my list of all time greatest authors ( First is Dean Koontz ), I just wish he could write a book a week, Then I wouldnt have to keep waiting for the next one to come out. Im not going to go into details about the book as if you are like me, I prefer to not know anything untill I start reading about it in the book, I have read most of his books so far and I love them all.
So as you can probably guess from what I wrote above, I highly Recomend this book.

Seems I've become an avid book collector of late. I will eventually have all of Stephen Kings' books. I really enjoy reading his work, so I am having a glorious time with what I have so far. It's amazing the places you can travel to with the help of a book, and the people you chance to meet. Right now, I'm on a deserted island.....the wonder of it all..............

Love the King! This is a great book showcasing his underappreciated short story ability. Here is to hoping others will pick up on this.
