 | Desperation by Stephen King
Somewhere along Route 50 in the Nevada desert exists a dead-end town called Desperation. Those who cross the town line embark on a never-ending journey of desperation, lunacy, and terror, as they find true desperation in a town that no one leaves. The novel is a companion piece to The Regulators , which is written under the name Richard Bachman and which involves many of the same characters in the same sort of setting, but exhibits an entirely different flavor than Desperation . The books can be read separately, in either order, and each can stand on its own as a fully-realized work. But they are interdependent works of fiction as well. AUTHOR: Stephen King
