It's been quite a while since I read a book by author Stephen King; it was time to see what I was missing out on. My sister has quite a collection of his titles on her shelf, so we picked out one for me together. We settled on
Cell, it's not as long as some of his others, but creepy enough for full effect.
An extreme number of us are totally dependent on our cell phones. We can't leave home without them or make a decision without referring to them. Now imagine that some one decides to use these devices to attack the world population. Your phone rings, you answer it, and poof, your mind is zapped. Stephen King did just that.
How do you continue if you are one of the few who didn't answer that call for whatever reason.
I loved this apocalypse novel. It neatly did away with most of the population in dramatic fashion, but left enough of a variety of survivors to keep it interesting. It was fairly condensed with regard to time scope to stay realistic. In short, it was wonderful. I did have to put it down every so often to allow for life, but really, I could have read it through in two sittings otherwise.
I certainly will be looking to read another of his works, probably
The Institute, soon.
