(as of Nov 10, 2024 20:42:08 UTC - Details)
A beautifully designed box set of Stephen King's early #1 bestsellers—Carrie, 'Salem's Lot, and The Shining—that will make the perfect gift.
"A master storyteller." —The Los Angeles Times
In Carrie, a teenage girl is tormented and teased to the breaking point by her more popular schoolmates. But Carrie has a gift and she uses this gift to inflict a terrifying revenge.
In 'Salem's Lot, Ben Mears has returned to Jerusalem's Lot, an old mansion, long the subject of town lore, to work on his new book. But when two young boys venture into the woods and only one comes out alive, Mears begins to realize that there is something evil growing within the borders of this small New England town.
In The Shining, Jack Torrance's new job as the off-season caretaker at the Overlook Hotel is the perfect chance for a fresh start. But as the harsh winter weather sets in, the idyllic location feels ever more remote . . . and more sinister. And the only one to notice the strange and terrible forces gathering around the Overlook is Danny Torrance, a uniquely gifted five-year-old.

Title: Satisfied
Review: 1. The books came in good condition.2. The box that held the books had nothing to keep it together, so when I picked it up, it came apart and the book fell out. Other than that (^), Iâm satisfied with the condition of my order, and Iâm hyped to read my new books. I know the movies have some differences, so Iâm curious as to what the books are like compared to the movies.

Title: Classics
Review: Shipment arrived early and in good shape; I was pleased about that.I read all three novels at their initial release and was surprised at how simplistic they seem to me now. As King has grown as a writer, I have grown as a reader.Good stories even so.

Title: Quick to ship, standard paperback quality
Review: I am half way through The Shining and it is a larger print than the original, and has the same quality as a paperback from 30 years ago (and not these cheap dime store novels you are used to seeing). While I only read for an hour a day, I am not an abuser of books so it still looks wonderful.

Title: As good as the first time
Review: I read these books when they were first published, but too many moves = attrition. Was happy to find this boxed set for replacement, although I miss my first editions. Great to be able to go back to early King to get a feel for how it all started with this amazing author.

Title: Love his books
Review: What I liked most is that it came with 3 books. Which gave me enough books. I love reading Stephen King books. The only thing that did surprise me is that the box set came in a mailing bag instead of small box like my last book order. Other than I was happy and also happy that they weren't damaged.

Title: Great books!
Review: My sister and I have loved reading Carrie from this set, and itâs very personal to us. We canât wait to enjoy The Shining, and Salemâs Lot. We may get an audiobook to go with those two for more imagination. Carrie is an excellent little novel for teens who struggle with reading and concentration - especially when it really is a very relatable story. The only problem was the packaging. It was delivered a little ripped and not handled well. But the packaging isnât that important. The books are in mint condition. We donât need the sleeve anyway. But just an FYI if you want to keep the sleeve, it did arrive ripped a bit.

Review: What can I say other that these well-loved stories have a permanent spot in my heart (and now on my Kindle)? I gave myself the mission to reread SK's entire body of work over the next year and therefore to acquire it fully in Kindle format. It's not going to be cheap, but with box sets like these, it's a lot easier!
