The Bachman Books by Stephen King

with King's ”The Importance of Being Bachman” introduction which is a different intro than some may be familiar with in the earlier omnibus entitled “Why I Was Bachman.”

A story of stunning psychological horror about a group of nice, ordinary kids who learn savage secrets of lust and violence... A chilling glimpse into a future America where a macabre marathon is a contest with death... and eerie variation buy on the theme of “Home Sweet Home”... and the nightmare vision of a ghoulish game show where you bet your life— literally.

Two of these 4 novels— RAGE and THE LONG WALK— were completed before CARRIE was even begun. The other two, ROADWORK and THE RUNNING MAN, were written in between of some of Stephen King's most popular bestsellers. And each of them is marked by the undeniable fascination of one of the most brilliant imaginations of our time— collected here for a full house of spine-chilling suspense from the man who made shivering believers of us all...
