Stephen King is now on his third quintet of stories yet the major difference between this and his previous efforts (Different Seasons and Four-Past Midnight) is that Full Dark, No Stars is really quite derivative. There's no out-right crackers like The Langoliers or The Breathing Method to be found here. Whilst the stories present are perfectly well written, all feel flat and disappointing. In short, it almost seems like a quick buck rushed out before his next full novel.
Such a shame considering his last two efforts, short story comp Just After Sunset and epic Under The Dome, were almost a return to form.
2.5/5
