why doesn't Dreamcatcher rank in the top tier?

Like others on here it didn't really hit me first time but really enjoyed it when I re-read recently. Love the Kurtz character and reference to Heart of Darkness and the whole mossy/telepathic thing going on. S***t weasels really were gross! I always find it hard to rank KS books as depends on the mood when reading but this would be up there.

sci-fi... not too many ppl crazy about sci-fi

that, plus the whole army aspect

i loved it though, definitely one of my fav SKs

Well, it's in my top tier along with It, The Stand, Pet Sematary, The Long Walk and Under the Dome. I love a cold setting, and the flashbacks of Duddits were great moments.

I have owned this book for several years and somehow gotten past it when deciding what to read next from SK. I think partly it had to do with the fact that I inadvertently watched the movie (I prefer to read the books first).
Anyway, I think it is time to get down to it. It seems from the posts that the book is far better than the movie, which does not surprise me in the least. I liked the movie so I hope that the book will be in my top tier.

Oh you'll definitely enjoy the book more than the movie. The whole "two minds warring for one body" thing is so much richer and more comprehensible in the book. And the movies ending kinda blows, has nothing to do with the book's ending.
