My opinion Although The Dark half is a gripping read I wouldn’t say that it is up to Kings usual standard as I did not feel as much part of the story as I normally do with his work. The story flows well for most of the book but occasionally borders on being sluggish. The characters feel overdone and rehashed with little insi...more
