Cell A Novel Stephen King Books

Stephen King's "Cell" is an engaging page-turner from start to finish. I found the story to be intriguing and the characters were drawn so well I could really relate to them. However, I was frustrated by the ending ... although, in a way I couldn't see how he could have ended it any other way. I also noted he used a few phrases and descriptions he has used before and I thought -- in that regard -- he could do better. However, per usual, the story was as thrilling as I have come to expect from this author. He's still my horror hero and I enjoyed the story!

Cell A Novel Stephen King Books Reviews

Original Review March 3, 2014
Updated Review July 1, 2016.

I love Stephen King and have been a fan of his work for as long as I can remember. When it comes to this book, "Cell" I can't help but read it over and over again. When my husband bought me a Fire HDX for Christmas I was thrilled. Too bad you can't get ebook versions of all the books you already own, but since you can't, this was definitely one of the books in my collection that I had to buy again for my . Absolutely Love this book!

King's storyline gives us an alternate version of a zombie apocalypse. Those who were unfortunately using their cellphones, directly or indirectly, turned into zombie-like creatures who are driven by hunger and anger, begin to maim and kill, ripping apart anyone they see. Everyone who was "Not" using their cell phone, attending a meeting by speaker phone, or even as tweens tend to do (listening without the speakerphone feature, with heads together) at the time of the Pulse are spared, from the pulse that is.

Our main character, waiting in line at the ice cream truck stares in shock as those around him, basically turn bat-sheet crazy, attacking and killing, even eating one another, well, ripping their throats out with their teeth anyway, not really eating like the typical Zombie fare.

With the vivid imagination of Stephen King, so many events were clear to my mind's eye. I'm sure that instead of a bus being driven intentionally into the lobby of a hotel, the movie version (starting at the airport instead of the park) will have airplanes intentionally crash landing instead.

Our main, secondary and other characters hide from the phone-crazies as the city burns. And that's just the start of the book. As things begin to settle, the phone crazies evolve into a flock-like collective, who like birds begin to exhibit a type of telepathic communication. That's when things get Really interesting. 

I can't wait to see the differences between the book and movie, especially now that it's finally arrived.

No noticeable typos,  errors in sentence structure,  well developed characters,  well thought out storyline. I love this book so much I currently own Paperback, , hopefully soon in Blu-ray format as well. Highly Recommended.
This like many of Stephen King's novels is both a terrible look at mankind and a wondrous look at what could be. The Cell, my 3rd time reading it, does not fail to deliver horror and gore, yet also brings the beauty of one mans search for his family after an apocalyptic phone call. 4 survivors who didn't get the call try to survive in a new world where those who did now rule the day. Heart wrenching, funny, thoughtful and thrilling this book will keep you reading throughout the night.
Cell is an OK book but it does move a little slow. It is a typical Stephen King book, so if you like SK it will probably be a good read. If you are not a SK fan and just want to see what he does with a Zompoc book, skip it.

As with many of SK's books the human element is the main story not the events going on in the world, they are just a backdrop. There are several threads that seem like they might go somewhere interesting only to be resolved with very little satisfaction.

And as is his style SK leaves the ending to the reader to fill in, which kind of leaves the story seem unfinished.
Human aggression is instinctual. Humans have not evolved any ritualized aggression-inhibiting mechanisms to ensure the survival of the species. For this reason man is considered a very dangerous animal. Konrad Lorenz

Can you hear me now? Verizon

On October 1, God is in His heaven, the stock market stands at 10,140, most of the planes are on time, and Clayton Riddell, an artist from Maine, is almost bouncing up Boylston Street in Boston.  "Cell" Stephen King

The world changes in a hurry. The event that survivors will refer to as "The Pulse" began at 303 p.m., eastern standard time, on the afternoon of October 1. The name hardly matters, in any case. What matters is the effect. The cause of the devastation is a phenomenon that will come to be known as The Pulse, and the delivery method is a cell phone. Everyone's cell phone. The opening lines of "Cell" hastens you into a violent, bloody, and deadly dangerous journey of four survivors of a world apocolypse that is unfolding around them, as rapidly as modern commucantion instruments have made possible. How often have you noticed people around you answering their cell phone, on the sidewalk, in a department or grocery store, or in the car? Now imagine, if you will, that the automatic process of answering the tone of your cell phone, removes your humanity, leaving only the basic drives of aggression, rage, and a murderous desire to attack, with bare hands and teeth, and kill every unaffected person you see, with your bare hand and teeth. Clay and his band of desperate survivors, Alice, Tom, and Jorden, find themselves in the black night of civilization's darkest age, a world of chaos, carnage, and a human horde that is reduced to its bassist nature...and then the horde begins to evolve in ways that make them even more frightening. This is the nightmare world imagined in Stephen King's "Cell".

While a King fan, its been years since I've read one of his books. I discovered that reading Stephen King, after an extended abscence, is akin to running into an old friend you have not seen for long time. Your grateful for the oppertunity and anxious to hear what she has to say, because she always has a great story to tell! Cell, is an intensely paced horror story, that delivers a barage of shocks that will cause you to shudder. It differs from many other King offerings, lacking his usual elaborate characterizations, town histories, and delayed gratification. Instead he yanks readers off their feet within the first few pages; drags them into this frightening world, and offers little chance for respite until the very last page. I loved this book, as should other readers, who enjoy a good scare!!
