A good one, not has good as my expectations, maybe I had to much, but still a good books. This is a sequel to The Shining, and we follow Dan Torrance during a part of is childhood and his adult life. The characters are goods, the evolution of Dan is beautiful, the story is original and interesting, but... i find the story maybe a little slow and the ending is kind of easy to find out, no big surprise there for me. So, another good novel for the King, but certainly not is best, and certainly not as good and the first and only Shining!!
