    I started reading Needful Things as a teenager and remember being enthralled but lost the book when I was about 3/4 of the way through it. This post has reminded me of it so I most seek a copy out and read it fully this time!

          Doesn't matter where you start because you'll be hooked on whatever you're reading and want to get hold of everything else he's ever written.

            🙂👍
            Depending on the attention spans these days, I'd advise them to start on the short stories.

              I love his short stories. He packs such a punch in few words!

                Absolutely!
                One of his first short stories I ever read was The Monkey. That was after I had read Salem's Lot and The Shining!
                That little story scared the BeJezuz out of me!

                  Yes! Night Flier is a doozy too! The one that sticks in my mind the most though is You Know They Got a Hell of a Band. What a great concept!

                    You Know They Got a Hell of a Band.
                    The first time I read that? Shivers!!!!
                    Nothing compares to the written story, but this is still fun.
