#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Stephen King's legendary debut, the bestselling smash hit that put him on the map as one of America's favorite writers - In a world where bullies rule, one girl holds a secret power. Unpopular and tormented, Carrie White's life takes a terrifying turn when her hidden abilities become a weapon of horror. "Stephen King's first novel changed the trajectory of horror fiction forever. Fifty years later, authors say it's still challenging and guiding the genre." -- Esquire "A master storyteller." -- The Los Angeles Times - "Guaranteed to chill you." -- The New York Times - "Gory and horrifying. . . . You can't put it down." -- Chicago Tribune Unpopular at school and subjected to her mother's religious fanaticism at home, Carrie White does not have it easy. But while she may be picked on by her classmates, she has a gift she's kept secret since she was a little girl: she can move things with her mind. Doors lock. Candles fall. Her ability has been both a power and a problem. And when she finds herself the recipient of a sudden act of kindness, Carrie feels like she's finally been given a chance to be normal. She hopes that the nightmare of her classmates' vicious taunts is over . . . but an unexpected and cruel prank turns her gift into a weapon of horror so destructive that the town may never recover., #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * Stephen King's legendary debut, the bestselling smash hit that put him on the map as one of America's favorite writers * In a world where bullies rule, one girl holds a secret power.

    The price was perfectly reasonable for the product, and the book arrived promptly and in great condition—like new, as described: the slightest bit of noticeable use and that was it. The seller wrapped it in literally 6 layers of protection (cardboard, bubble wrap, waterproof, etc.), which seemed like overkill but was much appreciated. My wife was so impressed that she demanded I leave a positive review immediately—and she was right. I’d be happy to do business with this seller again.

    The seller shipped the book quickly, tracked for added security and it arrived on time. Around 3 weeks which isn't bad at all. The book was exactly as advertised by the seller. I had no problem comunicating with the seller, he answered all my questions. He also packed the book very well so it wouldn't get damaged during shipping. It arrived as good as new. I'm very satisfied, the seller showed a very customer friendly /professional attitude. Hence my 5/5 positive feedback to him.

    I'm glad I found it!

    I have been reading Stephen King since I was 12 years old or for 41 years. As an adult, I have collected all his books. The only one I didn't have was this one, as I never could find a reasonable priced one when I was able to get it. It was exactly as described. It was wrapped very securely and arrived quickly. Thank you!
