I'm a big fan of King's novels, but this is one that I have not read as yet - should be good.

It's been a while since I've read a King novel and after being mildly disappointed by some of his latest works, I'm pleased to say that I enjoyed reading this immensely. I loved the fact that King can take quite ordinary people and throw them into the middle of something weird and wonderful, with no reason why this has happened to this particular group - and this is essentially the whole message of this story. Sometimes, you just don't get to solve the mystery - it just is.

I liked the characters and how they reacted to such completely strange life forms - we all like to think that if something otherworldly came to visit, we'd treat them with respect and humanity and courage and all that. But in this book, fear, revulsion and the need to save a pet dog show that we'd probably just lash out ... and maybe in our hearts of hearts we suspect this would be the case all along.

So overall, a good read (although still not as good as 'The Stand' and 'It') and one I'm glad I picked up.

Congratulations! You have found a traveling book.

Thank you for taking the time to visit this site and letting us know what this book has been up to since it was released into the wild. I hope you enjoy reading it, but even if it isn’t your type of thing, then I’m sure there will be someone out there who will love it. This book is now yours, so feel free to keep it. However, I would be grateful if you could leave all the stickers in place and pass it on again once you’ve finished with it – you could give it to a friend, donate it to a charity shop or just leave it lying around somewhere to be picked up again by a total stranger. If you would like to get regular updates on what the book is doing in the future, then why not join Bookcrossing too…it’s fun, friendly and free.
