The ending of Cell

**bex35** · September 15th, 2008

Hi
I'm new to the site and I've no doubt that this will have been discussed before.
But a year and a half after reading this book I've got to ask about the ending. Did it end? Please could someone enlighten me. Is it so obvious I missed it or is it more left to the reader to decide.
Please don't think this has put me off King. It was my first King read and I've never looked back

Also, I am an ex Literature student and have feel ashamed of asking the above question, but I've racked my brains for quite some time and now have come to accept that I have to know!

I think it was the end. It was a King-style hanger.

i wasn't a fan of the ending. it did seem pretty abrupt. any movie adaptation of this would have to have a stronger ending

Hello and welcome to the board. Happy reading and posting. Cell ended abruptly but that is not necessarily the norm.

It had to end somewhere....anything thing else would be anti-climatic. I loved the way Steve used the words...fo fo for you you or whatever...it fit nicely together and was awful sad and hopeful.....it was effective...

He ended it with hope....the best place to end it.
