Worst of Stephen King - Worst books or stories

Then again I also liked the DT ending, so

That makes you the first one I've ever heard say that. Any particular reason why? Everybody else generally considers it rto be nothing but ragebait and a massive waste of time.

The leadup was ass but the ending itself was appropriate.

Ka is a wheel motherfucker

Getting through Joe Hill's story collection Strange Weather and man, for a guy that chose a penname to avoid connections with his dad... he writes exactly like his dad. Worse in fact, the lefty politics are so on the nose it reads like parody. Second story is about a gun nut white guy surrounded by ethnic characters so infallible and likeable it's like he's never met another human before, let alone a black one.

I wonder if they are sheltered. When I read Sleeping Beauties, which King co-wrote with his son, Owen, what struck me is that clearly, these guys don't know any real women besides Mrs. King. These women are in an alternate world where they forge this perfect society because they know everything they need just because they learned from osmosis (Literally, one woman knows carpentry because her husband was a carpenter). And they also get along perfectly.

For Hill, I think the main reason he uses a pen name is to be taken seriously since his father literally named him Joking.

The Crimson King was lame as fuck. Reading his chapter felt like watching Jeremy Irons in Dungeons & Dragons, except it wasn't unintentionally funny.

Yeah I don’t mean the book. I mean the very ending itself: the idea that once he gets to the tower, he goes up and and up then… it just restarts the cycle over again. First the whole Ka theme.

A major problem with this, perhaps unavoidable, was that many Tower junkies had sussed out this ending, or something like it, for years before the books wrapped up. If I remember correctly, it even had a name -- "the Loop Theory." Exactly how it was going to happen nobody knew, but from all the "Ka is a wheel" stuff, a few vague hints that this stuff had happened before, and King's shameless pimping of the line, there was a large contingent of fans who had long guessed that the last line of the series would be The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed.

The man in black fled across the desert, and the black man followed.
