A beautifully designed box set of Stephen King's early #1 bestsellers—Carrie, 'Salem's Lot, and The Shining—that will make the perfect gift.
"A master storyteller." —The Los Angeles Times
In Carrie, a teenage girl is tormented and teased to the breaking point by her more popular schoolmates. But Carrie has a gift and she uses this gift to inflict a terrifying revenge.
In 'Salem's Lot, Ben Mears has returned to Jerusalem's Lot, an old mansion, long the subject of town lore, to work on his new book. But when two young boys venture into the woods and only one comes out alive, Mears begins to realize that there is something evil growing within the borders of this small New England town.
In The Shining, Jack Torrance's new job as the off-season caretaker at the Overlook Hotel is the perfect chance for a fresh start. But as the harsh winter weather sets in, the idyllic location feels ever more remote . . . and more sinister. And the only one to notice the strange and terrible forces gathering around the Overlook is Danny Torrance, a uniquely gifted five-year-old.

"A master storyteller." --The Los Angeles Times
"Guaranteed to chill you." --The New York Times on Carrie
"'Salem's Lot was--and still is--a hugely impressive novel. . . . It's the slowest of slow burns, all hints and drip-feed. . . . When the chaos finally unfolds, it's a real payoff." --The Guardian (London) on 'Salem's Lot
"Scary! . . . Serves up horrors at a brisk, unflagging pace." --The New York Times on The Shining
Stephen King
Stephen King is the author of more than fifty books, all of them worldwide bestsellers. His first crime thriller featuring Bill Hodges, MR MERCEDES, won the Edgar Award for best novel and was shortlisted for the CWA Gold Dagger Award. Both MR MERCEDES and END OF WATCH received the Goodreads Choice Award for the Best Mystery and Thriller of 2014 and 2016 respectively.
King co-wrote the bestselling novel Sleeping Beauties with his son Owen King, and many of King's books have been turned into celebrated films and television series including The Shawshank Redemption, Gerald's Game and It.
King was the recipient of America's prestigious 2014 National Medal of Arts and the 2003 National Book Foundation Medal for distinguished contribution to American Letters. In 2007 he also won the Grand Master Award from the Mystery Writers of America. He lives with his wife Tabitha King in Maine.

Love his books

What I liked most is that it came with 3 books. Which gave me enough books. I love reading Stephen King books. The only thing that did surprise me is that the box set came in a mailing bag instead of small box like my last book order. Other than I was happy and also happy that they weren't damaged.

Quick to ship, standard paperback quality

I am half way through The Shining and it is a larger print than the original, and has the same quality as a paperback from 30 years ago (and not these cheap dime store novels you are used to seeing). While I only read for an hour a day, I am not an abuser of books so it still looks wonderful.

Other than that (^), I’m satisfied with the condition of my order, and I’m hyped to read my new books. I know the movies have some differences, so I’m curious as to what the books are like compared to the movies.
