The Dark Half by Stephen King

Thad Beaumont is a writer. In the
not-too-distant past the literary press
was full of critical acclaim for his work.
Then he hit a period of difficulty with
his writing, and he invented George
Stark. At first, Stark was a bit of fun, a
pseudonym, complete with sinister
author biography, under which Thad
could create violent and commercial
thrillers. But the thrillers became
bestsellers and soon Stark was earning
far more money than Beaumont, and
Beaumont was creating nothing at all.

But now Thad is feeling better. The
father of infant twins, he's beginning
to write for himself again. He no
longer needs George Stark, and
somehow relieved that the game is
over, he announced that Stark will
write no more. He even "Buries" him,
with a specially made headstone, for a 
magazine photo-feature.

Which is all very funny and a happy 
ending to a lucrative but strange
period in the life of Thad and Liz
Beaumont. Except for one thing.
George Stark doesn't want to die.
Impossibly, terrifyingly, in an orgy of
violence, he appears to have returned
- a killing machine intent on
destroying anything and everything
that stands between him and the man 
who created him . . . 

Here is The Dark Half, a tale of terror so
real and fascinating that Stephen
King's growing legion of fans will find
themselves squirming in the master's
heart-stopping, blood curdling grip-
and loving every minute of it.
