Occupation
Author
Description
Best known for his horror novels, Stephen King (also using the pseudonym Richard Bachman, a more gruesome voice) writes in many genres: dark fantasy, science fiction, psychological suspense, and others. No matter the genre, his fast-paced, character-driven stories are told in conversational language and feature well-developed characters. His appealing heroes and terrible villains arise from our innermost fears into the everyday world, which becomes increasingly twisted. Whether focused on the real-world horrors of abuse or on supernatural terrors, good-vs.-evil is King's most common theme: The protagonist must rise to meet the challenge of the horrific. Start with: The Shining (Horror); The Gunslinger (Fantasy)
