Rage by Richard Bachman
3.0

Rage isn’t as bad as I expected but it’s not great either. I never found myself bored and I was curious where the story would lead.

Some of the language is juvenile and cringy but I think King genuinely wanted to discuss why traumatised teenagers commit horrific acts.

Even if it’s misguided and implausible, Rage is entertaining and doesn’t deserve complete derision.


King Ranked Best to Worst:

1. The Stand
2. Pet Semetary
3. Salem’s Lot
4. The Dead Zone
5. Misery
6. The Shining
7. Night Shift
8. Different Seasons
9. The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon
10. Carrie
11. Rage
12. Hearts in Atlantis
13. The Gunslinger
14. IT
