About the Author
In his lifetime , Richard Bachman published five novels. A sixth, THE REGULATORS, was published after he died of pseudonym cancer (a relatively painless way to go) in 1985. He developed a cult following both before and after his death. Two of his novels (THINNER and THE RUNNING MAN) were made into motion pictures.
BLAZE--both brutal and sensitive--is his final legacy. The last of the Bachman novels, written in 1973 and published for the first time. Stephen King s dark half may have saved the best for last.
STEPHEN KING is the author of more than seventy books, all of them worldwide bestsellers, including the epic thrillers The Institute and Desperation. Some of King s recent bestsellers are Fairy Tale, Billy Summers and If It Bleeds.
