True! For my money, it's the most ambitious Stephen King book, and I just love the scope of it and the slowly-building paranoia of the first couple chapters; it's the only apocalyptic book that I can think of (off the top of my head, anyway) that doesn't start post-apocalypse and instead takes its time showing exactly how society falls apart. Also, the characters are just wonderful. Nadine Cross is my personal favorite, but I love them all, even Randall Flagg. As villains go, he's one of the best.
