I'm a big fan of Stephen King, and I understand that this is nothing like what he normally writes — especially as this is meant to be a short book — but I can't help but feel that it just seems to be the equivalent of listening to an elderly neighbour gossip about the locals for about two or three hours. It's not really my cup of tea.

This is definitely a "slow burner" book, and it feels like it takes at least a good 400 pages before everything starts to really take off and have a good snowball effect. There are a lot of characters in this book, which is sometimes hard to keep track of and remember who is who, but I do feel like this is imperative to the story itself as it makes the devastation of Salem's Lot feel more personal and more catastrophic. I do feel like the ending could have been so much better, as I feel like once they had that final 'lightbulb' moment, I thought "Oh, that's it?"
You can tell this is an older book, especially when it comes to any female characters and an unnecessary description of her breasts at that current moment, but it's still a cracking Vampire story nonetheless.
