Speaking of Stephen King's book The Shining, I was actually trying to read it earlier (including The Stand), but the 1000+ pages did threaten me. I don't feel I can plod through a book this thick. I just can't imagine how Steve can write books this dense and lengthy, and why he is so great at composing such horror masterpieces.

Well, he's a goddamn horror legend, anyway, so why do I ask these questions?
