Revival
A Novel
Om bogen
Stephen King presents “a fresh adrenaline rush of terror” (People) in this electrifying #1 New York Times bestseller!
The new minister came to Harlow, Maine, when Jamie Morton was a boy doing battle with his toy army men on the front lawn. The young Reverend Charles Jacobs and his beautiful wife brought new life to the local church and captivated their congregation. But with Jamie, he shares a secret obsession—a draw so powerful, it would have profound consequences five decades after the shattering tragedy that turned the preacher against God, and long after his final, scathing sermon. Now Jamie, a nomadic rock guitarist hooked on heroin, meets Charles Jacobs again. And when their bond becomes a pact beyond even the Devil’s devising, Jamie discovers that the word revival has many meanings….
A dark and disturbing novel about addiction, fanaticism, and what might exist on the other side of life, Revival spans five decades on its way to the most terrifying conclusion Stephen King has ever written.

- Liked it very much. Superb narrator. I’ve read the story earlier so I was already familiar with the story. I am a big fan of stephen king and love most of his books.

- Ein klassischer Stephen King. Fantastische background story und irgendwann fragt man sich warum man die Decke bis zu den Ohren gezogen hat.... und auch sehr angenhvorgetragen

- Amazing reader. King is my fave author of all times, I loved this book. Very Lovecraftian, so dreadful in the end. It's a long build up but it's worth every page (or minute) for the finale.

- Definitivt en av Stephen Kings bästa böcker vars övergripande skräckpremiss kan stanna kvar långt efter att man lyssnat klart.
