“A story that, simply put, will take your breath away.” – The New York Times Book Review

Thad Beaumont should be happy. For years he wrote extremely successful violent thrillers under the pseudonym “George Stark,” but he has now decided to start writing again using his own name and to "bury" his grim pseudonym forever.

However, he is now a suspect in a series of brutal murders, which – as he suspects only himself – seem to have been committed by the… fictional author of his bestsellers. One of the two must die. But how can you kill something that was never born?

“The Dark Half is incredibly enjoyable. King possesses an innate storytelling talent that captivates the reader.” – Daily Express

“A powerful, gripping novel with elements of mysticism and thriller.” – Kirkus Review

“Amazingly terrifying… One of King’s best works.” – Publishers Weekly
