" Under the Dome moves so fast and grips the reader so tightly that it's practically incapacitating." -- Newsday, "Tight and energetic from start to finish...

Staggeringly addictive... King grips us in a chokehold of un-put-downable fascination for more than 1,000 pages." --USA Today "Tight and energetic from start to finish. Nowhere in Mr. King's immense body of work have his real and fantasy world collided with such head-on force." -- New York Times "King's ability to create a gripping world is so great, his pacing so effortlessly swift, that it can feel as if you're caught in a cat's claws, at once fearful of and delighted by the horrors the next page might bring.... King knows that the biggest danger comes not from the outsider--but from the mob growing within. We are all under the dome." -- Esquire "An author whose continued and slightly frenzied commerce with his muse has been one of the more enthralling spectacles in American literature.... Writing flat-out keeps King close to his story, close to his source. It seems to magnetize his imagination." -- New York Times Book Review (cover review), "Tight and energetic from start to finish... Hard as this thing is to hoist, it's even harder to put down."--New York Times

Synopsis
The "propulsively intriguing, staggeringly addictive" ( USA TODAY ) novel from master storyteller Stephen King--a #1 New York Times bestseller. It is a typical October morning in Chester's Mill, Maine: glorious weather, a perfectly blue sky, and quiet. Then, all hell breaks loose. Inexplicably, and simultaneously, a plane falls from the sky in flames; a woman's hand is severed; and a farmer's John Deere explores (with him on it). A few moments later, a pulp-truck crashes spectacularly. Somehow, an invisible and impermeable barrier--exactly following the town's perimeter--has descended upon the town. Life under the dome quickly becomes a hothouse--with the best in some people and the worst in others flourishing. There are unambiguous heroes and villains, from a supremely corrupt local politician to a very enterprising newspaper reporter. The situation under the dome deteriorates by the minute: supplies of everything are diminishing quickly, the citizens are panicking, and the police force, under the control of the diabolically devious alderman Jim Rennie, implement their own version of martial law. Meanwhile, Barbie, brave Iraq war vet and short order cook, and a band of intrepid pals engage in a race against time to find the source of the dome and raise it before there's nobody left alive in Chester's Mill. Under the Dome is filled with a marvelous and enormous cast of over 100 characters. King's trademark idiomatic language is pure pleasure to read. "Nowhere in Mr. King's immense body of work have his real and fantasy world collided with such head-on force" ( The New York Times Book Review )., Don't miss the "harrowing" ( The Washington Post ) #1 New York Times bestselling thriller from Stephen King that inspired the hit television series, following the apocalyptic scenario of a town cut off from the rest of the world. On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when -- or if -- it will go away. Dale Barbara, Iraq vet and now a short-order cook, finds himself teamed with a few intrepid citizens -- town newspaper owner Julia Shumway, a physician's assistant at the hospital, a select-woman, and three brave kids. Against them stands Big Jim Rennie, a politician who will stop at nothing -- even murder -- to hold the reins of power, and his son, who is keeping a horrible secret in a dark pantry. But their main adversary is the Dome itself. Because time isn't just short. It's running out.
