The only Stephen King book I really like is Eyes of the dragon. I was mildly bored while reading most of his other work (I can remember Pet cemetery, Cujo, Cariie, and the first two or three Dark tower volumes, but I'm fairly certain I've read more). His Bachmann work was slightly more interesting.
For me, the best horror novelist is Clive Barker. But I must admit that I rarely read horror.
My husband thought much the same..to quote "Stephen King can ramble on about nothing of any use for pages and pages, yet you can't read LoTR!" Well, horses for courses
