Stephen King - A Great Writer

With more than 50 best sellers, Stephen King is one of the more prolific authors of our time. His masterfully created tales of fantasy and the macabre span over a period of more than 25 years.

The Shining was my first introduction to the writings of author Stephen King and it still stands out in my mind. After reading many of his other novels and writings, I've realized a majority of his stories are not for the faint-hearted. For those of us that enjoy reading and creating the characters through our own vivid imagination, the screened versions pose a slightly different view, if you will, of the tales Mr. King writes, although his brilliance and expertise is conveyed in all of his writings and productions.

I truly have, as many others must admit, enjoyed all of his writings that I've read so far. His recent publication Duma Key and a variety of others can be found in the Stephen King Bookstore on the Amazon website below and is also available on the new Amazon Kindle, audio CD, and by audio download. Although I have many of his writings, I've also purchased quite a few screened editions. I find myself watching the movies over and over again. Living in a large older home, I neither read the books, nor watch the movies when I'm home alone.

If you're looking for a great Stephen King book to read, that will stir your imagination, you can find a large assortment of Stephen King paraphernalia online at the Amazon website or just fill the Amazon search box below. You won't be disappointed.
