High paced, “young adult” style writing, 600+ page non-stop adventure. The ease of the writing style, the high tempo pace, and of course the traditional absurd, fantasy, violence, suffering you're used to in King, written in amusing quippy often sexual-innuendo-esque, often slightly disturbed, quite weird, and not always in-character one-liners makes this a hilariously fast enjoyable and dark read. Stupidly quotable, and highly addicting.
