This book by Steven King as so far an awesome book it is an exciting non stop thriller, he makes it so you want to put the book down but you can't and what I mean by that is the book is really descriptive and a little on the scary side I wouldn't recomend reading it late at night if you get scared easy but on the other hand you want to keep reading to see what is going to happen. This book is based around a little boy and a saint bernard who is well a man eater. I enjoy Steven Kings books for many reason and this is one of my favorites the book gives so much detail that you feel you could be there, I've seen the movie and I prefer the book it has more detail and makes you think a little about what is going to happen next.

I have to say that this isn't a good or bad book. It depends totally on what you like to read. After Peter Benchely got away with half of Jaws being sprawling subplots (Which I really liked anyway) I guess King decided to have his go at what happens when you combine terrorizingly real animals (sharks and rabid dogs are real, and that's what's so creepy) and unfaithful spouses. Unfortunatly the beginning of the book doesn't read that well or fast, but at the last half, its gets very intense.Its well worth it, if your patient enough. So if you think your in for a rampaging beast gore fest think again. I would have enjoyed it if it killed brett, the mailman, kemp, and charity. That would have made it better, because thats what killer dogs are all about.

As usual with Stephen King, you have to wonder what would you do in this situation, whihc really could happen, trapped in a hot car with a rabid dog outside, hope I never have to find out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
