life expectancy was fantastic i couldnt put it down,I dont really read stephen king,hes a little long winded for me,but you should try sean hutson and richard layman if you havent already,brilliant authors.
my favorite stephen king book is it. one reason was that a boy was doing something to another boy and a girl was watching which what i thought was hilarious. and the only book i ever read from dean koontz was the darkest evening of the year. it reminded me of my life.
