  “I have not read this since I was 13 years old. I loved it then. Maybe it won't hold up now, who knows. Don't judge me.”

  “this novel filled me with fear, it's a warning alarm from the future when there is only two social classes.. the ultra rich and the very poor and no middle class”

  “Forget the cheesy 80's Schwarzenegger flick, this is a dark and gritty look at a dystopian future enthralled by what basically amounts to reality television with a healthy heaping helping of ultra-violence. This is a great book and shows that when he's at the top of his game, there is simply no touching Steven King, no matter what name he may write under.”

  “The running man, by far one of my favorite stephen king novels. I loved the setting and how it took place in the future and this new game was the new entertainment of the time period. THe main character is put on the show in which one has to run and survive for a certain amount of time before, those hosting the game kill him or the time runs out. He wants to get the money for this contest for his ill daughter and wants to be able to support her illness. So he joins this very dangerous game show and comes upon many obstacles and close calls during the way. I loved the book and think that anyone would agree about the quality of this story!”

  “If i didn't buy it by mistake it I wouldn't read it. That does not mean this book was awful, absolutely not; it has a strong story line, a fair end but it contains vulgar and offensive scenes.”
