SynopsisSoon to be a major motion picture starring Ewan McGregor From master storyteller Stephen King, his unforgettable and terrifying sequel to The Shining --an instant #1 New York Times bestseller that is " a] vivid frightscape" ( The New York Times ). Years ago, the haunting of the Overlook Hotel nearly broke young Dan Torrance's sanity, as his paranormal gift known as "the shining" opened a door straight into hell. And even though Dan is all grown up, the ghosts of the Overlook--and his father's legacy of alcoholism and violence--kept him drifting aimlessly for most of his life. Now, Dan has finally found some order in the chaos by working in a local hospice, earning the nickname "Doctor Sleep" by secretly using his special abilities to comfort the dying and prepare them for the afterlife. But when he unexpectedly meets twelve-year-old Abra Stone--who possesses an even more powerful manifestation of the shining--the two find their lives in sudden jeopardy at the hands of the ageless and murderous nomadic tribe known as the True Knot, reigniting Dan's own demons and summoning him to battle for this young girl's soul and survival..., Now a major motion picture starring Ewan McGregor From master storyteller Stephen King, his unforgettable and terrifying sequel to The Shining --an instant #1 New York Times bestseller that is " a] vivid frightscape" ( The New York Times ).

Great way to catch up with The Shining's Danny Torrance
great book excellent way to catch up with The Shining's Danny Torrance compelling story and characters the True Knot will make you will love to hate them and want to be see get what they deserve Best young female heroic character since Maddie in Coen's True Grit some sense of great depliction of characters human and super human development I am a "constant reader" of Stephen KIng and enjoyed this book very much highly recommended but if you do decide to read this do yourself a favor and read KIng's The Shining (don't settle with just watching Kubrick's film) and his son Joe Hill's Nos4a2, very highly recommendedBestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Boring
Boring and unrealistic even for 'fantasy'. I think this is one of King's worst books (even worse than The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon). It was so boring, I threw it in the recycle bin. I couldn't even finish it and that is unusual for me.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Sequel to The Shining - I had no idea
Loved this book, I didn't realize that it was the sequel to The Shining with the son Danny all grown up and you figure that out within the first few pages but I guess only if you've seen the movie or read the book that is. We knew the son was special and Stephen King can always surprise with his new characters and their dark needs and deeds. Excellent book, I'm so glad I bought it, I couldn't stop reading it and finished it in 3 days over the holiday. Highly recommended!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
