Episode Seventy Four-Desperation
Tak! In September of 1996, Stephen King published two novels on the same day.

Episode Seventy Three-The Regulators
This week, I examine Stephen King's most underrated novel, The Regulators. Published on the same day as Desperation, this entry, under the pen name Richard Bachman, is one of King's most out-there and high concept novels. Perfectly skewering suburban life as well as offering up commentary on living with a difficult child, The Regulators is an action sci-fi with satirical horror elements that combine to make this novel an incredibly imaginative journey.
