Stephen rules!
Dean-I've only read only 3 of his books!House of Thunder rocks!I think Watchers and Midnight were pretty good too!
But I still think Stephen is a way better!
"Dark Tower" series are great,but my favourites are "The Long Walk","It",
"Misery" and "The Tommyknockers"!Oh,I forgot "The Stand" and "The Dead Zone"!Well what can I say:Stephen is the man!

I love Stephen King and I'm reading The Dark Tower series as we speak. Its great, and its true that Stephen can write about anything and make it sound interesting. "Blind Willie" is a great example.

I also like John Grisham but the problem I see with him is that his first few books were seriously good thrillers but "The Street Lawyer" bored me to death and "The Summons" wasn't exactly a high paced race through the pages. "The Bretheren" is good, "Painted House" and "Skipping Christmas" but I'm finding the rest quite boring. "A Time To Kill" is his best followed by "The Client".

However, Stephen King remains the best.

Grisham wrote few good books and then started copying his own books. And since he writes about lawyers in one way or the other it's all pretty boring. Plus you always know how the story is going to end...

I think some of Grishams books have a very surprising ending
