A review by davehershey
Blaze by Stephen King, Richard Bachman

dark emotional reflective fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

4.0

Stephen King - or should we say Richard Bachman - is channeling Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men here. Blaze is a bad guy, but also a sympathetic figure. Overall, perhaps the best of the Bachman books, though it feels different than the 70s-80s Bachman books.
