Blaze, Richard Bachman (aka Stephen King), 2007, Scribner, Genre: Suspense. Also includes short story, "Memory," by Stephen King. 285 pages. Finished 8/23/13.
LesOpinion: When he writes books like this, Stephen King can be one of my favorite popular authors. Blaze is a melancholy, suspenseful book that will have you pulling for its antihero--a giant, mentally disabled man (a nod to Of Mice and Men) who carries out a crime-of-the-century kidnapping.
Blaze was written in the '70's during King's "Richard Bachman" period, but the master recently dusted it off, re-worked it, and published it (with an entertaining forward) in 2007. If you're looking for a good book to read as the summer fades away, head on down to the library and pick up Blaze.
