Finally got around to reading this one. Like everyone else, I can certainly see a lot of Stephen King influence here. In fact, I see CHRISTINE, SALEM'S LOT, and FIRESTARTER kinda all wrapped up. It does have a lot of good imagery, good action, and an interesting horror plot. Liked Vic and the supporting characters; only one of the cops seemed too stereotyped. Hill threw in a nod to his dad's territory with the inscape map, that was funny. However, one Stephen King influence I could have done without: this book is long. I think Hill could have cut at least 50 pages and had a tighter story. So: very readable, much to like, but pretty wordy.
