'Barbie' is put in charge. But Big Jim Rennie, the man who holds the town in his powerful grip, has other plans. And the dome could just be the answer to his political prayers.As food, electricity and water run short and children start to have premonitions of a terrifying Halloween, 'Barbie' is forced to take on Big Jim and his renegade supporters. Now time is running out for those living under the dome. Can they find what has created it before it's too late? Stephen King's mesmerising new masterpiece - his biggest, most riveting novel since THE STAND - features spectacularly sinister characters and a terrifying phenomenon. UNDER THE DOME is a high-octane thriller, an apocalyptic vision and a fascinating allegory on a tyrannical state of political darkness. PLEASE NOTE: This book will come in one of three covers

  I'm an avid Stephen King fan and this is by far one of his greatest books I could not put it down for a second. At points it was graphic but King fans like myself would be used to that, and it is needed to add to the horror of it all. Also, changing from person to person ever few pages was fantastic it gave you better insight to what they were going though and what was going through their minds. I have told everyone I know to read this book even ones that arn't readers, do yourself a great favour and read Under the Dome you wont be disappointed.
