Every Stephen King Novel Ranked Worst To Best
16. Christine
Christine is the novel that perfectly sums up just how great an imaginative storyteller Stephen King is. Following the murderous impulses of a 1958 Plymouth Fury and the interwoven lives of its obsessed owner, his best friend and his girlfriend, King describes Christine as a story of a "lovers' triangle" as well as the story of a haunted car.
With its surreal imagery, horrific action and mind-bending plot, King proves to be an author able to make horrors out of the mundane. A car shouldn't be scary, but with Stephen it's both terrifying and a big, dark metaphor for teenage angst that hits all the right notes.
