My first King novel in 24 years (not counting 'On Writing', which I read last year). Having read almost all of his books religiously as a teenager, I decided to part ways with King when he killed Mattie in 'Bag of Bones', which I found unforgivable. I've had some time to forgive and forget now, particularly forget.

I enjoyed Mr. Mercedes, despite not liking the villain, and look forward to reading the next book in the series. I may even have a look at some of the other books I missed in the past 20 odd years.
