    IT and The Shining
    I'm sorry, but in what world are those two overlooked?! Both are considered to be classics in King's body of work.

            Most of the Bachmans are probably overlooked, but "Roadwork" is the best of the Bachmans and, in my opinion, a Top 10 book from King's entire opus. I think if it had been published under the King name, it would be considered a literary classic today.
            What else? Hmmmm. I think while "Cujo" is famous, it is often overlooked or dismissed. It has a lot of stuff to say about the disintegration of the ideal American nuclear family, and Donna Trenton is one of the most complex characters in King's work.

              great post, Roadwork and Cujo are two of my favorites so I totally agree.
              From a Buick 8 is also a very underrated novel.

                  I don't hear people talk about
                  Roadwork
                  or
                  The Running Man

                    Yeah, Firestarter was pretty cool.

                      Dolores Claiborne. It also has an excellent film adaptation with Kathy Bates.

                            'The Dark Half', just a really good book and 'Secret Window, Secret Garden', similar and just as good, and another like themed story that has been overlooked in my opinion, is 'The Ballad of the Flexible Bullet'.

                              Thinner. Well crafted story and a page turner. Loved the ending too.

                                Roadwork is the first that came to mind. A fascinating study of an imploding life.

                                  Bag of Bones and Christine are both great! I had no interest in reading Christine because I knew what it was about, I'm so glad I did pick it up.
                                  Bag of Bones, I don't hear alot of people talk about that, but it's one of his very best.

                                      the Eyes of the dragon is very under-rated. I agree with you The Eyes of the Dragon is my favorite Stephen king books and one of my favorites overall. I really want him to write a sequel to the eyes of the dragon.

                                        Overlooked? I can't think of any.
                                        Plenty that should never have been written.
                                        I would rather have quality than quantity.
