Book Review of Under the Dome (Large Print)

Under the Dome (Large Print)
reviewed on + 52 more book reviews


Absolute pedal-to-the-metal non-stop action throughout this huge tome. (120 MPH down a dead-end street!) As I suspected, book and TV mini-series are quite divergent. The book has a huge cast of characters with different motivations, different fates, different ages, and different characteristics. And, of course, the book is much more graphic, violent and horrific.

I am not really a Stephen King fan, but then I am not a "Horror" fan either. He scares me too much. Probably a sign of an excellent writer. His books with a SciFi bent, I can manage to read. So if you want to be scared out of your boots this may not be the book for you, but it is a thriller from start to finish.
