We were discussing this on Facebook (initially it was me, Alison Littlewood, Anthony Cowin, Ross Warren and Andrew Murray) and it occurred to me that it might be fun for all of us to pick one Stephen King novel and write a review of it, linking them all together. Ross suggested we create a blog, I thought about calling it "The Stephen King Annual" and then Willie Meikle came up with the title we settled on.
The purpose of this blog is to review two or three Stephen King novels a month throughout 2015 (it was originally going to be twelve!), with a different writer/reviewer for each one. Some reviews you might agree with, some you probably won't, but hopefully they'll all entertain you and might even give you some reading suggestions.
Confirmed so far we have:
