I had the hard cover of this book when it first came out. If you had seen this book it was huge in the hardcover version and to some it might of been a challenge. I finished desperation in about a week and half. I enjoyed the book greatly.
Located off a desolate stretch of Interstate 50, Desperation, Nevada has few connections with the rest of the world. It is a place, though, where the seams between worlds are thin. Miners at the China Pit have accidentally broken into another dimension and released a horrific creature known as Tak, who takes human form by hijacking some of the town's residents. The forces of good orchestrate a confrontation between this ancient evil and a group of unsuspecting travelers who are lured to the dying town. This rag-tag band of unwilling champions is led by a young boy who speaks to God.
Desperation was the first book of Stephen King's I had actually read all the way through. I had checked out Carrie at the library but never finished it. Desperation was released as a TV movie and it was not as good as the book. They left alot out that I thought kept the story moving.
If you have not read Desperation I suggest checking it out. It takes you on a ride from beginning to end.
