Book Reviews of The Dark Half

This is a great book.It puts you to think and it makes you ask yourself the question,could this be real?It is simply about a writer having a pen name which he writes under,but shortly after announcing the "death"of his pen name Killing starts to happen.The story is great there is a lot to it like for example when the writer(Tad Beaumont)was small he had surgery and this surgery proved that he had a twin brother!This fact however has a little or alot to do with the story,it depends on how you look at it or read it as the case may be...But the important thing to this is get started with this book because it is really good.The beginning might be a little slow but it is worth the read.I read this book over a year ago and it is still in mine mind,it is so tempting to write a review about it and share its greatness with other readers,sadly I cant remember all the details about the book,but I do know it is good and I would definitely recommend it for new and old readers alike...Enjoy.
AMAZON.COM REVIEW

KING brings split personality to a new high on both mental and physical levels. The plot is entertaining and a real mind bender...

I think this might be one of my favorite King novels. Extremely origianl and very weird!

Creepy, very-very creepy.....but in that good Stephen King way.

This is one of my all time favorite Stephen King books. I have read it countless numbers of times. I'll probably keep pulling it out from time to time to read it again!

Thad Beaumont would like to say he is innocent.

He'd like to say he has nothing to with the series of monstrous muders murders that keep coming closer to his home.

He'd like to say he has nothing to do with the twisted imagination that produced his bestselling novels.

He'd like to say he has nothing to do with the voice on the phone uttering its obscene threats and demandng total surrender.

But how can Thad disown the ultimate embodiment of evil that goes by the name he gave it - and signs its crimes with Thad's bloddy fingerprints?

"A story that roars forward on all 12 Cylinders and doesn't let up!"
-Newsday

"A chiller... Few writers are better than Stephen King at giving readers what they want."
-The New York Times Book Review

One of my favorite King books.

Thad Beaumont would like to say he's innocent, that he had nothing to do with the murders that keep coming closer to his home, that his twisted imagination has produced nothing more than best-selling novels. But how can Thad disown the ultimate embodiment of evil that goes by the name he gave it, and signs his crimes with Thad's own bloody fingerprints?

Book Description
Bestselling author Thad Beaumont would like to say he has nothing to do with the evil that has resulted in a series of monstrous murders. But he can't. He created it.

Great read

A very scary and gripping read, Stephen King Style.

Steven King at his best. Scarry!!!

My wife read this quite some time ago, and doesn't remember much about it. Here is the synopsis from the back cover of the book:

"Thad Beaumont would like to say he is innocent.

A great read on a dark night!
