Product Description

On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when -- or if -- it will go away.

Dale Barbara, Iraq vet and now a short-order cook, finds himself teamed with a few intrepid citizens -- town newspaper owner Julia Shumway, a physician's assistant at the hospital, a select-woman, and three brave kids. Against them stands Big Jim Rennie, a politician who will stop at nothing -- even murder -- to hold the reins of power, and his son, who is keeping a horrible secret in a dark pantry. But their main adversary is the Dome itself. Because time isn't just short. It's running out.

4.0étoiles sur 5 A great King Novel, Nov. 15 2009
Very Good Novel. Reminisant of the stand in which a small town crisis has the town slowly dividing into sides of good and evil. Although more than 1000 pages in scope, not nearly as broad in locations as the story is set entirely in the small town. Some really great characters to root for and some evil ones too that I really loathed (Rennie!)I would recommend this book to King fans. He is the very best at articulating the tensions and development of characters in his books, and there are quite a few in this one. What gave this review a 4 star instead of 5 was the ending. Not a bad end to the book, but it tied up a little too quick considering the scope on a whole. (but I find that in 90% of all books in my opinion)

4.0étoiles sur 5 King burns rubber for 1072 pages, Nov. 13 2009
Par J. Tobin Garrett (Vancouver, BC) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I read my first Stephen King book when I was 13 years old and have been hooked every since. As is expected with an author that has something like 50+ published novels of pretty substantial size, I have been disappointed a number of times. Under the Dome, however, is not one of those times. After getting my hands on an advanced reading copy through my work (a bookstore) I started this behemoth and was hooked from page 3. King starts this story with a bang and burns rubber throughout the entire novel, never letting up the hyper-speed pace. With a book this size, I was expecting a few parts to sag, to be boring, but nothing like that ever happened while reading this book: I was completely addicted.

The story is simple: a big ol' dome comes down and cuts off this one small town, Chester's Mill, from the rest of the world. No one can get in or out. What the novel focuses on is how that changes the society inside the dome, how people react to their new enclosed space. And, since this is a King book, you can expect that they don't act well. This town has a lot of bad apples and skeletons in the closet, and they all come out to play when the dome comes down.

There are a few times in this story where I had to suspend my disbelief a little bit farther than I was willing. Mainly, in that things turned south so fast. Perhaps it was just the fact that the book was hundreds of pages, but I couldn't help being jarred whenever I learned that only a day or two had passed in the world of the book, when it felt like it was more time to me. Perhaps this was a conscious decision to keep the pacing fast. Some of the characters can come across as cartoonish, especially the main villain. Most of the characters are well-written and interesting, with faults that make them more believable. But this book is a good one. Not as good as the book it's inevitably going to be compared to (The Stand), but good. King dives into some complex questions about authority, fear, and propaganda, drawing some comparisons between the tactics of George Bush and Dick Cheney and our Dome-villian government figures. There is also a pretty heavy dose of environmental catastrophe interlaced throughout that parallels well with our current global warming issue.

My advice would be not to start this book unless you're ready to turn off the phone, lock the door, and finish the whole thing in one go.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Another good one from SK, Nov. 17 2009
Par J. Macgillivray "Maritime Bookworm" (Moncton, NB, Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Along with the supernatural, SK often writes about the breakdown of society after catastrophic events (The Stand, Cell). This is one of those stories, and I enjoyed all 1000-plus pages of it.
