What to expect
Ralph does. At first he starts waking up earlier. And earlier. Then the hallucinations start - the colours, shapes and strange auras. Not to mention the bald doctors who always turn up at the scene of a death.
That's when Ralph begins to lose a lot more than sleep. When he begins to understand why his hitherto mild-mannered friend, Ed, is getting out of control - dangerously so. And why his home town is about to become the new Armageddon . . .
(P)1994 Penguin Highbridge

Good story, excellent narration but spoiled by the terrible and totally unnecessary music played throughout the book, the loud metal style guitar that comes crashing in at regular intervals completely spoils the enjoyment. If I could return the book I would.

I don't know where Stephen King gets his ideas for his tales, but so far I've never been disappointed when I read his books. A great tale,but I'd have preferred it without the bits of music which played throughout. The music was a little annoying.
