The bachman Books

by Caffine_Free , Oct 09 '00
Pros: It shows the world how it is/was/might be. It's truthful.
Cons: It's long, and no longer published as the 4 books together.
The Bachman Books were interesting to read. They are Rage, The Long Walk, Roadwork, and The Running Man. I just recently finished reading all four. I didn't know what to expect when I started reading, but i enjoyed all 4. In Rage, a boy takes his...

Very good reading

by tiffanylynne , Oct 27 '00
Pros: great book
Cons: none
In my opinion, Stephen King is one of the greatest writers ever. His stories are so imaginative, and he can easily evoke any emotion in a person, especially fear! The writings he did as Richard Bachman are just as spectacular as his other writings, and...

Who'd He Think He Was Fooling, Anyway?

by robndea , Oct 03 '00
Pros: Excellent style, fast paced
Cons: Darker than some of his other work
Stephen King has a style that he just can't hide, but that is exactly what he attempted to do in the Bachman books. Surrounded by phenomenal success (with more to come!) King felt it necessary to try the waters again and submit a series of stories under...

Not his best...or worst either

by wampyrii , Oct 12 '00
Pros: one good story...others are ok
Cons: seen them all on television like as not
The Bachman books is a collection of Stephen King's early works written when he was in college, later to be rediscovered when he found fame, dusted off and published under the name of Richard Bachman to avoid embarassment to the author.

The Bachman books

by capthowdy79 , Nov 29 '00
Pros: Very exciting, great read
Cons: Roadwork was very slow paced
I loved the Bachman Books. I thought they were a wonderful example of Stephen King's earlier writing style. I would have to say though that my favorite novella would have to be "The long walk." Considering the gruesome realities of a not so...

King vs. Salinger

by JJ927 , Dec 12 '00
Pros: Teen coming of age stories
Cons: bad Arnold Schwarzenegger movie
Stephen King (using the pen name of Richard Bachman for this collection of short stories)sure knows what he's doing. These four short stories (five, including the later added "Thinner") contain 2 of the BEST stories I've ever read or could ever...
