This book inspired me to get a pen name to which I could publish stories that I didn't want certain people to know I wrote the book. extremely well written book I am impressed.

Someone should look into getting a remake of this. I absolutely ADORED The Dark Half--its my favorite King novel thus far--so when I heard there was a movie of it, I rented it immediately, and was sorely disappointed. Romero did the story no justice at all. I hope one day someone will write a new screenplay...one that will be what it should have been the first time around.
