The Stand

One of the latest books I read from Stephen King was "The Stand". It is considered one of his greatest books, and i would have to agree completely with that statement, maybe going as far as one of the greatest books ever? It features a large cast of characters that travel across the United States to find a one they call Mother Abigail after a experimental biological weapon, also known as the super flu or Captain Trips, was released all over the world and killed around 99.4% of the population. The people have recurring dreams of the "Dark Man" Randall Flagg over the course of their journey, as they wonder who this man really is, and how evil his is. The book itself is a huge battle between good and evil in which you'll have to read the book yourself to find out all the happens.
