A patient escapes from a biological testing facility, unknowingly carrying a deadly weapon: a mutated strain of super-flu that will wipe out 99 percent of the world's population within a few weeks. Those who remain are scared, bewildered, and in need of a leader. Two emerge--Mother Abagail, the benevolent 108-year-old woman who urges them to build a peaceful community in Boulder, Colorado; and Randall Flagg, the nefarious "Dark Man," who delights in chaos and violence.

  • This is Stephen King’s Best

    I had read the cut version many years ago so I wanted to read the uncut version. I haven’t started it yet but I am so looking forward to diving into it. PS Due to the current issues with USPS it took almost a month to receive this book.
