Billy Summers

This is a 2.8 star book for me.

I liked a where Stephen King was going with Billy Summers and the slow build up to Billy's one last hit in this book. I also liked a lot of the side characters that were introduced in the first half.

However, once Alice Maxwell is introduced, I felt like King was trying to mash too many things together. I also didn't feel like the person who ordered the hit made much sense; it would have been more interesting if it was someone from Billy's past.

Also, if I'm a hit man, I'm not stopping for days or weeks to write a book or assuming everything is hunky dory after I go shoot up a house full of people. It's like Billy forgot he was a hit man the second half of the book.

Anyway, a decent read, but nothing is read again.
