I feel like The Dead Zone is one of the more underrated books that Stephen King has written. In my experience, King packs the most emotional punches in those books where the supernatural elements are either absent or toned down. The dead zone is a prime example of the latter. Johnny's story, through no fault of his own, is filled with loss and melancholy. A truly masterful work.
