Ilustration Toward Books The Regulators

**4.5-stars rounded up** To the residents of Poplar Street, in suburban Wentworth, Ohio, July 15, 1996, just seems like any other summer day. The paperboy is dutifully tending to his route, the Reed twins are showing off for some young ladies and the corner store is functioning like a well-oiled machine. Not one of them suspects that the proverbial shitis about to hit the fan. The Regulators are coming to Poplar Street and they're coming for blood! It's hard to imagine a 475-page novel, that takes place over the course of one afternoon, on one suburban street, would make you sweat in anticipation, but this one certainly does. We follow this cast of characters from the minute the Regulators arrive, until the bitter end. Some we love, some we hate, but in the end, no one escapes their fate. You may wonder, yeah, but what's it all about? Trust me when I say, it's best to go into this knowing as little as possible, but for those of you who are just going to insist on knowing more, I will give you this one small clue: (view spoiler)[ It involves a supernatural hitchhiker named Tak, from a mine just outside of Desperation, Nevada, invading the mind of one of the young residents of Poplar Street. You may know Tak from a little story aptly named Desperation by Stephen King. (hide spoiler)] This novel is hella violent and dark, so if that isn't your cup of tea, you may as well just mosey on down the street. This book is only for those with the intestinal fortitude to handle intense scenes of violence. This is actually my second read through and I would definitely recommend reading Desperation and this novel back-to-back. I think the overall experience is enhanced if handled that way. I love them both and for different reasons. A must read combo for King's Constant Readers!

Criticism Appertaining To Books The Regulators

Excellent. While this was the third time I've read The Regulators, it's the first time I read it immediately after Desperation.It's fun to compare the two while reading, to see what scenes are similar and what characters change roles.But this book is more enjoyable to me than Desperation, as it has a much quicker edge-of-your-seat pace.

This is the companion book to Desperation, and although it's listed here as being written by Stephen King, it was actually Richard Bachman. Ha ha, for those of you that know they are one and the same. King/Bachman uses the same character names in both books which makes for an exercise in memory if they are read close together. For the first 100 or so pages I would think of the character from Desperation as the name was recycled in The Regulators. As a testament to his skill, after that point, I

This was my first Stephen King and he hooked me.

It's been a while since I read this book. I had some pretty fond memories of it, and it's always been my favorite of two companion books that King/Bachman published together. They are alternate realities, kind of mirror images, of each other... But The Regulators is also a link to the Dark Tower universe as well. We have the same characters (plus some new), but in different roles and with different perspectives and personas than we saw in Desperation. We have a different setting, suburban Ohio

Not a bad story, but not very memorable, either. The Regulators is typical Stephen King, with a small town setting and things that aren't always as they seem.

Description: There's a place in Wentworth, Ohio, where summer is in full swing. It's called Poplar Street. Up until now it's been a nice place to live. The idling red van around the corner is about to change all that. Let the battle against evil begin. Read by Frank Muller Muller gives this so much energy. I remember when we all used to go camping, torches under the chin, we would take a turn at telling a story under chiaroscuro canvas - it didn't matter if the subject was weak, if it was told
