Stephen King is my all time favorite author. I am been quoted many times on facebook saying that I think he is a genius. Firestarter is so compelling and just like the grip of electricity, it won't let it's reader go.

Great reading... I admire the ability of Stephen to make things that are hard to believe sound absolutely real, to make us believe they could have actually happened...Firestarter is, I think, one of the novels of Mr. King, which seem less scary at first, but on second thought...Thanks for great reading...

I read this a few months ago and sometimes I still cringe from the thought of someone ripping off my finger nails with a pair of plyers. Good read!

Firestarter should be published as an unabridged audio book.


[This title, read by Dennis Boutsikaris, will be available April 2010.]

The first book my mother gave me to read from Stephen. She figured it was the tamest of his books...and she was right. Awesome, my favorite of all time besides The Stand.

Love all of your books.First one I read was The Stand.Wonder what it would be like to update Firestarter? Just a thought.

Certainly a good novel. Although it is very sad and not a typical novel with a happy ending, you gotta admire the story and plot. A very engrossing book. Other King books i like are misery, the shining, carrie, and the green mile.

Dear Mr. King, I have thought a lot before this e-mail to you whether it would be a good idea to disturb you with my request - but I have eventually decided I had to do this. So, please accept my apologies for any iconvenience at first. Secondly, I should apologize myself for my English which is not as good as it could be (English is not my native language). Charlie McGee became my love (in a good meaning of what love means) and I have kept this love in my heart for about 10 years. The story of a little pyrokinetic girl touched my heart - and I would like to ask you very much - if it is possible, please let me and others know what was the continuation of her story. Many years have gone since the time when she was a kid - but how did she become a grownup and what about her Z-factor (ability to have children)? Please let me know whether I can have at least an opportunity to know the continuation of the story. Thank you beforehand, Faithfully yours, Alex. PS. And please forgive me again for any inconvenience.

Charlie McGee was a very bad girl when she burned the boots of the guy at the airport.The weird thing was that in the end she was adopted by the Manders,even after burning their farm.And King put on Pangborn's mouth in The Dark Half "Staying around you is like staying near a cave where a beast just came of...even if there is no more beasts inside you wouldn't like to stay near it.It's not your fault,but I don't think anybody will love you anymore."
