King is a skillful wordsmith, and he can create memorable characters and truly scary situations. Unfortunately, he also has a tendency to fall back on buckets of gore, as in the case of this novel of four friends who are bound together by their relationship with a retarded boy. The menace is invasion from outer space (or maybe the US military's response to it), and it's King's gift that he can find something new to say about UFOs and little gray men.
