Every Stephen King Novel Ranked Worst To Best

Sharing characters and events with Bachman's The Regulators, Desperation is undoubtedly the stronger of the two novels, sporting a dark and spine-tingling aesthetic and palpable claustrophobia that seems to leap from the page.

Following a group of people imprisoned in an abandoned town by a possessed cop and forced to face the horrors around them, the novel might be a touch too long for what it is, but when the scares and plot are this good, it's easy to forgive the little things.
