King makes it all look easy, which is surely his book's fanciest trick. Going backwards proves to be another step forward for the most remarkable storyteller in modern American literature.
King takes his protagonist Jake Epping, a high school English teacher from Lisbon Falls, Maine, , on a fascinating journey back to - from a world of mobile phones and iPods to a new world of Elvis and JFK, of Plymouth Fury cars and Lindy Hopping, of a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald and a beautiful high school librarian named Sadie Dunhill, who becomes the love of Jake's life - a life that transgresses all the normal rules of time.
With extraordinary imaginative power, King weaves the social, political and popular culture of his baby-boom American generation into a devastating exercise in escalating suspense.
Many of King's books have been turned into celebrated films, television series and streamed events including The Shawshank Redemption, Gerald's Game and It. He lives in Bangor, Maine, with his wife, novelist Tabitha King.

It's a thunking pager which left me only wanting more.
The master storyteller in truly masterful form. Captivating, surprisingly pacy and free from sci-fi cliche, it's no wonder the film version is already being planned. But as you worry at the paradoxes and the brilliantly explained pseudo science there is no denying that this monster yearn is blindingly impressive. The master storyteller in truly masterful form.

But as you worry at the paradoxes and the brilliantly explained pseudo science there is no denying that this monster yearn is blindingly impressive. Manly writers run out of steam as they get older. King, though, writes books that are ever longer and more demanding. I can't wait to see what he will tackle next.
It takes great brazenness to go anywhere near this subject matter. But it takes great skill to make this story even remotely credible. King makes it all look easy, which is surely his book's fanciest trick.
