I read this somewhere about his writing and I loved it: “King's writing style throughout his novels alternates from future to past, characters, and setting in each chapter leaving a cliffhanger at the end. He then continues this process until the novel is finished”.

I thought of putting up a list of his best novels but who is to say which one it is the best. The best is what you like and he has more then 200 books to choose from.

If you want to look up the list, read reviews, find out what other readers think about his books just click this link Steven King
