I read this as part of The Grand Stephen King Experiment for TannerWillbanks.com.

I loved this book. I thought it was a wonderful character study of a man who loses everything he wanted in one fell swoop. He fights his way back but encounters roadblocks at every step of the way. While I know that King is considered a horror writer, this is far from being a horror novel. This is a book about a man who has something extraordinary happen to him and the way that he deals with that.

Highly recommended.
