Yet another gripping tale by the King.
Storm of the century is one of those typical King stories. Something evil comes to a coastal town in disguise of a stranger who knows every dark little secret of its inhabitants. The people are busy preparing for a big storm to come and gather in a secure building. At the same time, inexplicable murders take place, committed by people mentally controlled by the stranger. Like the storm, the action increases, until
the stranger confronts the townspeople and forces them to make a cruel decision. The book was written as a movie script, with stage directions, dialogues and descriptions of the scenery. But once you get used to this unusual format, you won't be able to put the book down.
