Does he know the meaning of “fiction”? Most of his readers do.

I don’t like any of his books anyway.

Most overrated author, ever.

Not a problem, Mr. King. I gave up on your stuff a long time ago. Political insanity is not an attractive quality in a writer.

Thanks for the heads-up, Stephen. No chance I would have bought it anyway. You probably wouldn’t like my current hand gesture.

I stopped reading the guy in the early 2000 time frame. I thought he’d be dead by now after his being hit by a car?

He's being mighty presumptuous to even think they would READ his new book. I quit reading him YEARS ago.

The only book I even slightly enjoyed of his was Firestarter. So he is probably right.

Dean Koontz and Robert Cameron are far better writers.

“The Stand II” He rewrites the stand and just reverses the evil and good from the original, and there were are today.

"is a time capsule of a particular time when I was writing the book"

When his mind was completely befuddled by the vax.

Misdirection.

Covid was a political bio-weapon, just like the MRNA “vaccines” and the mask mandates.

Mail in “ballots” we needed in staggering quantities, at all costs.

To steal an election, a country, and the planet.

Don’t worry, Steve. I haven’t read one of your boring novels in about three decades and I’m not going to start again now. And in my recent experience, vax pushers are only right in fiction, so you’re at least in the right genre.

Good. I loathe Stephen King’s books anyway, so I can just add this one to the pile of them I’ve never read and never will. Just a sample of a few pages was enough to turn my stomach.

I’m working on my own horror novel. It’s about a famous wealthy novelist who is so afraid of a disease epidemic that he hides away, takes multiple vaccines, and ridicules and demonizes those who just don’t take the thing seriously. He is so sanitized that his immune system collapses from underuse.

He eventually overdoses on vaccines and dies a painful death, only after transforming into a pile of oozing green sludge.

Given what Stephen King has cranked out over the years, I’ve always compared him to the large room full of chimps with typewriters. Once in a while he types out a quasi-hit but I don’t consider any of his works that great, regardless of his politics. Some people are really big fans of his, though. I don’t get it.
