The thread all about good books

if you like stephen king, i recomend the first book i read from him: Tommyknockers, i loved it and its still one of my favorites. not as gory as what you describe, but it is full of mindpineapples and twists. definitely worth a read.

 Summary

While walking in the woods near the small town of Haven, Maine, Roberta (Bobbi) Anderson, a writer of Wild West-based fiction, stumbles upon a metal object which turns out to be the slightest portion of a long-buried alien spacecraft. Once exposed, the spacecraft begins releasing an invisible, odorless gas into the atmosphere which gradually transforms people into beings similar to the aliens who populated the spacecraft. It also provides them with a short-sighted form of genius which makes them very inventive, but does not provide any philosophical or ethical insight.

Ooh yeah, I'll definitely have to check that out. I'm also thinking about giving his Duma Key a try.
