There was a period in my life I couldn't wait for a King novel to hit the 
bookstand (and a Bachman novel either) it kept me hungry for more...but then 
ever since the Eyes of the Dragon he lost me as a valued reader...I would 
read his novels but waited for a used book store to get them in...I haven't 
read Delores Clayborne, Gerald's Game and Misery only started the frist few 
chapters and put it down. 
 
But with Regulators it held me again...the magic he once had when he pumped 
out Stand, Salem's Lot, etc.., was hiding in there and now it brought me back 
into the fold...yes Desperation had it's little quirks but the novel is 
showing us King in his raw form...:)
