A famous novelist held hostage in a remote location by his "number one fan" is the subject of the number one New York Times bestseller. This "genuinely scary" novel by Stephen King follows best-selling writer Paul Sheldon as he believes he has finally moved on from his character Misery Chastain. In a risky career move, he decides to kill off Misery in order to explore new creative paths. However, this decision comes with severe consequences.
Following a severe car accident in rural Colorado that leaves Paul with a broken body, he is rescued by his self-proclaimed number one fan, Annie Wilkes. Annie is outraged by the death of Misery and demands that Paul bring her back to life by writing a new novel specifically for her. Trapped in Annie's isolated home, Paul is left with no choice but to comply with her demands as she becomes increasingly coercive and violent in her methods.
Critics rave about the gripping nature of the novel, with The New York Times calling it a "winner" and Publishers Weekly describing it as "unadulteratedly terrifying." The Boston Globe praises the book as a "Classic King" story filled with suspense and unexpected twists.
Overall, this thrilling novel by Stephen King keeps readers on the edge of their seats as they witness the intense power struggle between the captive writer and his unhinged fan.
