Under the Dome: Part 1 by Stephen King

5.0

Stephen King has written a masterful tale of good and evil. I demolished volume one in two days at a meager 638 pages. Now I have to start volume two immediately.

With a huge cast of characters that kept my head spinning and a suspenseful story that kept my hand flipping pages, I immersed myself under the dome with a hero Colonel Barbara, an evil monster Jim Rennie, Chief of Police, Pete Randolph Jim’s puppet, PA medical angel Rusty Everett, a true psychopath, Junior Rennie and a long list of innocent, hardworking small town people trapped in it’s unknown invisible wall.

I wanted to scream at the injustice, strangle the evil, and send help to the townspeople of Chester’s Mill Maine.

I have no idea how they will get out of it or if they do, but I truly hope the good ones survive and the evil gets what’s due like acid rain on their faces.

Lastly a quote by Jimi Hendrix that Stephen King included in this book that rings true to me.

“When the power of love is stronger than the love of power, the world will know peace.” Jimi Hendrix

Show the love and may peace be with you!
