Customer Reviews

The First Three...

What more can a King fan ask for? This is a brilliant 3 novel edition of King's first 3 published books. I'm sure you don't need my review on the books, since by now you know all of them very well. This Edition has no flaws, unlike mentioned in earlier reviews, so I'm going to guess they fixed that. If you really are looking to expand your Stephen King hardback collection; this is the book to do it with.

A must have

3 of the best and scariest novels by the horror king himself Stephen King in one low-priced book. If you haven't read any of the novels buy this book, I promise you wont get bored or want to put the book down. The downside is that you'll probably wish Carrie/Salem's Lot/or The Shining were longer so you could keep reading :)

Wow, what a set!

Three of the best novels Stephen King ever wrote:1) Carrie - the first. Even if you've seen the movie a hundred times, this is one creepy little novel;2) 'Salem's Lot - the scariest. King sets a mood that crawls right under your skin and stays there - heck, it moves around in there;3) The Shining - the classic. A brilliant horror novel that is a classic along the lines of Lovecraft or even Poe -- These are three of King's BEST, if they had included "The Stand" here (still King's best novel ever), they could have called it the Definitive Stephen King. Definitely a must-have for all you Koontz and Saul fans that don't realize who was the first and the best!

All the best

I've read all these novels and my copies are nearly ragged so I decided to purchase this set. What a clever idea to package King's three best novels in one volume. If it's time to replace your old beat up copies of Carrie, Salems Lot, and Shinning pick this volume up today.
