I was a HUGE King fan since I was a little kid (read Pet Semetary when I was 10, and haven't missed one since).
I haven't liked a lot of his stuff since Tommyknockers (which was kinda shaky, although I like it more now than I did when it came out).
Needful Things was good. Very interesting idea, and well-executed. Coulda been a better novella, though.
I appreciated that Leland Gaunt was also Flagg (who appeared in Stand, Eyes of the Dragon, Gunslinger, etc.). Little things like that tickle me. :)
