Search - The Tommyknockers

Eerie and riveting. I had to stop reading a few times and surround myself with people because it was so creepy.

An older King novel...good..but drags a few times...not my favorite King novel. Long story... 747 pages...maybe that was my problem with it...too much for me to take in as I read it over time.

A highly detailed and descriptive book. The mini-series on t.v. several years ago did do the book justice. But it's a must read for King fans and for all those interested in otherworldly matters. Scary but thought-provoking too.

Great book. Early King is considered by many to be the best he has ever done. Yes, this one is a little rough compared to some of his later stuff but the characters draw you in like you wouldn't believe. Mr. King creates characters that are so alive that I would swear that I know them, or know of them at the very least. These characters are like that, even the dog! You feel for them, you empathize and you sympathize. This is a very well done book and a nice blend of horror and science fiction for those of us who enjoy both.

Complex, full of intrigue and incredibly satisfying, Tommyknockers is one of Stephen King's best efforts. I've read this book over and over, and each time I find something new to love about it. If you're looking for a book that you can really sink into and lose yourself in, pick up a Stephen King book - the longer the book, the better it is. He does his best work when he writes and writes and writes...

I really enjoyed this book up to the half way point. Then it just became TOO long and TOO dragged out. Don't get me wrong, I love long books, and I respect authors who are willing to commit so much to one story. I just felt the end was detail by detail that I didn't really need to know or care about. One thing I love about Stephen King is his character and backstory development. He really makes the reader care about the characters and get a feel for the story. So even though there was about 300 pages I felt dragged on, I wanted to finish because I really wanted to know what happened at the end. This was just an average King book for me.
