This has to be one of my favorites my King. King is a master at developing his characters so they can easily become real to you. The book is not action packed but it will keep you flipping the pages at a good speed. An excellent read.

It is strange that is book isn't as famous as King's other works, it has been my one of favorite as long as I finished the book years ago. Johnny Smith is the tragic protagonist that not only share my name but also share somewhat of my experiences (of course I did not meant that I can also see the future). The most touching scene that kept replaying in my head was the time when Smith wakes up from his coma and found out the love of his life had married to someone else. The conversation of them when she came to visit still clear in my head. Is more tragic story than a horror one.

I thought this book definitely measured up to King's standards, and kept me fully engaged in the story until the very end. To me, the ending was so disappointing and not at all up to the standards of most of King's work. It was too simple and uneventful for me.
