Master storyteller Stephen King presents the classic, terrifying #1 New York Times bestseller about a terrifying otherworldly discovery and the effects it has a on a small town.

“Late last night and the night before, Tommyknockers, Tommyknockers, knocking at the door…”

On a beautiful June day, while walking deep in the woods on her property in Haven, Maine, Bobbi Anderson quite literally stumbles over her own destiny and that of the entire town. For the dull gray metal protrusion she discovers in the ground is part of a mysterious and massive metal object, one that may have been buried there for millennia. Bobbi can’t help but become obsessed and try to dig it out…the consequences of which will affect and transmute every citizen of Haven, young and old. It means unleashing extraordinary powers beyond those of mere mortals—and certain death for any and all outsiders. An alien hell has now invaded this small New England town…an aggressive and violent malignancy devoid of any mercy or sanity…

“Wonderful creeping terror…a great storyteller!”—The New York Times Book Review

I admit that I'm in love with Stephen Kings uniquely, horrific and imaginative mind. I've also been a firm believer in aliens ever since X-Files came to be in the 90's. With that being said, Tommykockers was a perfect blend of horror and sci-fi! There were times where I felt the book dragged on and on with unnecessary commentary, but overall Tommykockers made my personal top 10 by SK. Narration was very well done and he definitely had me engulfed in this whirlwind story.
Grab on to your tin foil hats and hold your breath! It's the Tommykockers....the Tommykockers are knocking on your door next.

I always enjoy King. Concept was cool. Took awhile to get going. And it was about 5-7 hours too long. The concept was interesting, but over all I didn't fully connect with this one. It's still a good enjoyable read, just not my top 5 for King.

Interesting concept. 5-7 hours too long

I liked it for sure. Started out very mysterious and just eventually became less interesting. Definitely not due to the length, the Stand could be my favorite book ever and it's a tad longer I think.

Good not great.
