Summary: Great books, POOR edition...
Comment: I love these three Stephen King books. I bought this as soon as I saw that it existed, in an effort to get more of my books in hardback editions.
That being said, I have to say that I'm very disappointed in this edition. I'm only about a hundred pages into 'Salem's Lot, and I've already noticed several glaring editorial errors (missing periods, blatant spelling errors). The most amazing thing I've found so far is that page 241 is printed AGAIN on page 242! At first I thought perhaps I was just not concentrating, but a quick comparison of the two pages reveals that they are indeed the same page, with a different page number at the bottom.
The books are easily 5 stars a piece. And the fact that you can get these combined in hardback at such a low price is great! But be aware that you're getting exactly what you pay for, which is a compilation of three great books with slipshod editing, which can be very distracting.

Summary: Wow, what a set!
Comment: Three of the best novels Stephen King ever wrote:
1) Carrie - the first. Even if you've seen the movie a hundred times, this is one creepy little novel;
2) 'Salem's Lot - the scariest. King sets a mood that crawls right under your skin and stays there - heck, it moves around in there;
3) The Shining - the classic. A brilliant horror novel that is a classic along the lines of Lovecraft or even Poe --
These are three of King's BEST, if they had included "The Stand" here (still King's best novel ever), they could have called it the Definitive Stephen King. Definitely a must-have for all you Koontz and Saul fans that don't realize who was the first and the best!

Summary: All the best
Comment: I've read all these novels and my copies are nearly ragged so I decided to purchase this set. What a clever idea to package King's three best novels in one volume. If it's time to replace your old beat up copies of Carrie, Salems Lot, and Shinning pick this volume up today.
