A question for fans of the author stephen king?

Question

I love his writing, but can't handle the really scary stuff... any suggestions?

I have read:

the dark tower series

the green mile

hearts in atlantis

thank you for the suggestions!

Answer 1

Non-horror/scary SK books:

*Blaze (written as Richard Bachman)

*Duma Key

*Bag of Bones

*Hearts in Atlantis

The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon

Rose Madder

Dolores Claiborne

*The Colorado Kid

*Green Mile

I've read all of these and they arent scary or very graphic. I put stars next to my favorites. Since you've read the Dark Tower series, try reading Insomnia. It isnt really scary, but it does tie in quite well with the series.

Answer 2

Not scary:

Different Seasons

Eyes of the Dragon

Firestarter

The Long Walk

Roadwork

Answer 3

You should read by all means necessary

The Long Walk

Answer 4

Insomnia is very good.

Answer 5

You'd like The Girl who Loved Tom Gordon and perhaps you should look into The Talisman which he co-wrote with Peter Straub.  

Answer 6

Firestarter isn't scary

Answer 7

The Tallisman is a very good book i would also try the novella collection Different Seasons" it has four short novels, three that have been made into movies....
