It

Most people say The Stand is King's greatest work but I think I will have to disagree. IT is scarier and has fantastic character development. I loved Richie. His accents and personality were a great comedic relief although his Mexican accent missed the mark pretty good.

I'm a huge fan of the movies and I think the movies are better although it's definitely nice getting a better backstory on the creation of this universe, and the characters, and understanding what IT is. The movies don't explain very much and I've always wondered what that “bright light” was.

My only issue with this book, surprisingly not the length, was the cringy homosexual child porn scene as well as the child gang bang...what the F was that about and why wasn't it edited out?
