Yet another slice of pure gold from her. She's become my favourite author of horror/weird/thriller fiction. I'm not going to say anything about the plot but the book itself is another one of her multi-layered descents into a place where you're unsure what's true and what's not until the very final reveal. Dark, quiet and measured with slices of genuine horror, her style always reminds me a lot of Peter Straub's best work like Koko or Ghost Story.
'Holly' is also very good, but for different reasons. I always have preferred King's shorter works like Revival or Carrie to his big monster doorstopper novels, which always feel flabby and overwrought to me. And he struck gold when he created the character of Holly Gibney. She's as immensely likeable as ever and has more shit to go through in this one. It's pointless talking about King's style as everyone already knows what they're getting so if you appreciate it when King reins in the worst of his tendency to waffle, you'll like this one.
