About this product

Product Information

#1 BESTSELLER - Stephen King's apocalyptic vision of a world blasted by plague and tangled in an elemental struggle between good and evil remains as riveting -- and eerily plausible -- as when it was first published. A patient escapes from a biological testing facility, unknowingly carrying a deadly weapon: a mutated strain of super-flu that will wipe out 99 percent of the world's population within a few weeks. Those who remain are scared, bewildered, and in need of a leader. Two emerge--Mother Abagail, the benevolent 108-year-old woman who urges them to build a peaceful community in Boulder, Colorado; and Randall Flagg, the nefarious "Dark Man," who delights in chaos and violence. As the dark man and the peaceful woman gather power, the survivors will have to choose between them--and ultimately decide the fate of all humanity.

  • The Stand/The Complete Uncut Edition is an enthralling, eerily relevant tale of good vs. evil.

    Stephen King's fictional horror story now seems prophetic in this pandemic season. There's well-written suspense in this excellent book as well as King's dark humor. The Stand: The Complete Uncut Edition is a must-have for the Stephen King fan who wants more details & serious, bragging rights for going the extra mile.

  • The Stand Complete and Uncut by Stephen King

    This is one of my favorite Stephen King books. Compelling and extensive, it is a great story well told. I actually bought this as a replacement for the copy I had that my dog chewed off the back cover and the last 4 pages.

  • The title is perfect for the content.

    One of Stephen King's longest novels, but his best in my opinion and I have read and own most of his works, The size of the tome seems daunting until one actually begins to read and you suddenly realize it is impossible to put down. The characters come alive and you find yourself caring what happens to some and wanting harm to befall others. This book is gripping until the final page.

  • Best book EVER!!

    This is the most epic read ever. Just a great book, great characters in an epic story. Def one of Stephen King's very best books. This unabridged version is the only way to go, as it adds new characters and additional scenes which are worth noting.
