Artikelbeschreibung
Stephen King gefunden im Sachgebiet: Romane (engl.) Hardcover wie neu! Vier Männer planen einen harmlosen Jagdausflug in die Wälder von Maine, der schließlich in einer bizarren tödlichen Bedrohung endet. Kann ihr alter Freund Duddits mit seinen telepathischen Fähigkeiten sie aus dem nicht enden wollenden Albtraum retten? Four childhood friends, united by secrets, are caught in the quarantine zone when something crashes into the remote forests of Maine; and the question becomes who will avoid being eaten alive by alien fungi, torn from the inside by alien ferrets, possessed by alien minds or menaced by a psychotic military commander to whom ruthlessness has become a macho ego trip? The Earth is in peril as well, needless to say, but most of our attention is taken up with a few men caught on the edge, and where the most important thing in the world turns out to be the fact that four small boys saved a fifth from a beating. Similar to Stand By Me, in that, four boyhood friends bind by accident with a fifth (who has unique powers) in the early portion, it progresses into an 'all hell breaks loose' plot. Now the men, all adults, engage in an annual hunting ritual in the Maine woods, when an alien spacecraft crashes. Bring in the military! The consequences and unquestioned loyalty that emerges from these five men is dramatic and King presents it as absolutely normal, despite the unusual circumstances. King is good at bringing out the hero in his male characters. The plot is complex and the characters are real, so despite any time in the story when things seem like what they are, a wild twist emerges and King stings you again with a fantastic surprise. I won't even attempt to spoil you with details, but they are shocking. Friendship, loyalty, masculinity and humanity are the stars in this novel, despite the crazy military portions and the alien aspect. Of all of King's stories, I felt this to truly be one that pulls full circle with plot, characters and a well balanced conclusion. 599
