The King of horror — Author (7)
Doctor Sleep [Book] Douban Goodreads
author: Stephen King / [美] 斯蒂芬·金 publishing house: Scribner 2013 - 9 other title: Doctor Sleep
Stephen King returns to the characters and territory of one of his most popular novels ever, The Shining, in this instantly riveting novel about the now middle-aged Dan Torrance (the boy protagonist of The Shining) and the very special 12-year-old girl he must save from a tribe of murderous paranormals.
On highways across America, a tribe of people called The True Knot travel in search of sustenance. They look harmless - mostly old, lots of polyester, and married to their RVs. But as Dan Torrance knows, and spunky 12-year-old Abra Stone learns, The True Knot are quasi-immortal, living off the "steam" that children with the "shining" produce when they are slowly tortured to death.
Haunted by the inhabitants of the Overlook Hotel where he spent one horrific childhood year, Dan has been drifting for decades, desperate to shed his father's legacy of despair, alcoholism, and violence. Finally, he settles in a New Hampshire town, an AA community that sustains him, and a job at a nursing home where his remnant "shining" power provides the crucial final comfort to the dying. Aided by a prescient cat, he becomes "Doctor Sleep."
Then Dan meets the evanescent Abra Stone, and it is her spectacular gift, the brightest shining ever seen, that reignites Dan's own demons and summons him to a battle for Abra's soul and survival. This is an epic war between good and evil, a gory, glorious story that will thrill the millions of hyper-devoted fans of The Shining and wildly satisfy anyone new to the territory of this icon in the King canon.
Billy Summers [Book] NeoDB Douban Goodreads
author: Stephen King publishing house: Scribner 2021 - 8
From legendary storyteller and #1 bestseller Stephen King, whose “restless imagination is a power that cannot be contained” (The New York Times Book Review), comes a thrilling new novel about a good guy in a bad job.
Billy Summers is a man in a room with a gun. He’s a killer for hire and the best in the business. But he’ll do the job only if the target is a truly bad guy. And now Billy wants out. But first there is one last hit. Billy is among the best snipers in the world, a decorated Iraq war vet, a Houdini when it comes to vanishing after the job is done. So what could possibly go wrong?
How about everything.
This spectacular can’t-put-it-down novel is part war story, part love letter to small town America and the people who live there, and it features one of the most compelling and surprising duos in King fiction, who set out to avenge the crimes of an extraordinarily evil man. It’s about love, luck, fate, and a complex hero with one last shot at redemption.
You won’t put this story down, and you won’t forget Billy.

Jurtjyrkogården [Book] NeoDB Goodreads
Pet Sematary
author: Stephen King publishing house: Legenda 1990
Läkaren Louis Creed flyttar med sin familj till den lilla staden Ludlow i Maine. Det nya huset är fantastiskt; naturen är underbar och grannarna vänliga. Men i utkanten av idyllen lurar farorna. Det är något mystiskt med den gamla djurkyrkogården där traktens barn begraver sina husdjur. Bortom den ligger också en annan begravningsplats - på marker där uråldriga förbannelser slumrar.
När familjens katt återuppstår efter att ha blivit överkörd förstår Louis att mäktiga krafter satts i rörelse. Till det yttre är katten densamma, men något är ändå kusligt annorlunda. En stor tragedi inträffar, och familjen får ångra att de kallat på de döda.

Jurtjyrkogården hör till Stephen Kings mest lästa böcker. Den låter skräcken sippra in i vardagen, och tänjer skiljelinjen mellan levande och döda.

#1 New York Times bestselling author Stephen King’s timeless coming-of-age novella, Apt Pupil—published in his 1982 story collection Different Seasons and made into a 1998 Tristar movie starring Ian McKellan and Brad Renfro—now available for the first time as a standalone publication.

If you don’t believe in the existence of evil, you have a lot to learn.

Todd Bowden is an apt pupil. Good grades, good family, a paper route. But he is about to meet a different kind of teacher, Mr. Dussander, and to learn all about Dussander’s dark and deadly past…a decades-old manhunt Dussander has escaped to this day. Yet Todd doesn’t want to turn his teacher in. Todd wants to know more. Much more. He is about to face his fears and learn the real meaning of power—and the seductive lure of evil.

A classic story from Stephen King, Apt Pupil reveals layers upon layers of deception—and horror—as finally there is only one left standing.
