Advantages: an easy King novel to get into

Disadvantages: don't go on a diet!

It took me a little over a week to finish this book, which is darn good for me, it's a little different than most of his other books, some people will probably like that, since sometimes it can take about 300 pages for the action to start happening.

Throughout the course of this book, we are faced with characters dealing with moral dilemas(nice cars those dilemas!). The book's main character, Billy Halleck, accidentally kills an old Gypsy woman in the road while his wife is performing a certain sexual act on him. Then the woman's father curses him, he starts to lose loads of weight until he's nearly a human skeleton, but no one believes that it is the gypsy's making

The overall moral message of the book is 'You are responsible for your own actions'! and is certainly entertaining, although slow in some parts but stick with it!

This is an exciting and riveting book for anyone with a shred of emotion or mental capacity. I recommend you buy this book at all costs, you won't be disappointed!

nb. just don't watch the film - it's dire!!
