Stephen King creates characters and story better than anyone I have read. Under The Dome is no exception. Those of you with a military background will recognize the terms CLUSTER F--- and FUBAR. Train wreck comes to mind. This is not to imply that the book is in any way military.
The story is LARGE. At 3 pounds 10 ounces and 1074 pages it is typical Stephen King and a good BIG read.
The usual elements appear: A supremely evil human being; Some otherworldly components; An expected cast of characters with down-to-earth gritty attributes complete with hard edges.
The original story was conceived in 1976 and has been very well adapted to today. If there is any place on earth that is like Mr. King's fictional patch of Maine, I certainly do not want to experience it. It IS fun to read about though.
All in all a good story and a good read.
