In this #1 national bestseller, master storyteller Stephen King, writing as Richard Bachman, tells the tale of the contestants of a grueling walking competition where there can only be one winner—the one that survives.

Against the wishes of his mother, sixteen-year-old Ray Garraty is about to compete in the annual grueling match of stamina and wits known as the Long Walk. One hundred boys must keep a steady pace of four miles per hour without ever stopping...with the winner being awarded “The Prize”—anything he wants for the rest of his life. But, as part of this national tournament that sweeps through a dystopian America year after year, there are some harsh rules that Garraty and ninety-nine others must adhere to in order to beat out the rest. There is no finish line—the winner is the last man standing. Contestants cannot receive any outside aid whatsoever. Slow down under the speed limit and you’re given a warning. Three warnings and you’re out of the game—permanently...

    Not really worth the time it takes to read. Bad ending if you could call it an ending. Kings’ most disappointing piece of work, IMHO.

  • Dragged on and on…

    say that I liked many of the characters in this one. But, still, it’s Stephen King and so…4 stars.

  • Meh

    Good book, I know it’s kings style to not tell you much of anything about backstory which you know is fine I guess but, the ending blew, like bad. So yeah it was worth my time but it only broke even.

    Stephen King once again proves that generative AI tools such as ChatGPT can produce more exciting works of fiction. Like all his stories, the long walk is dry, talentless, and reads like it’s written by a depressed teenager for a creative writing class.

  • Great book

    Stephen King kills it again, great book. Slow build but it helps you go “insane” with the characters!

    While the novel is pretty good overall there are several issues needed to be discussed. The novel is severely outdated which big problem sometimes. The novel is slow as well, which makes it drag and dry. Other than that a clear page turner and Classic.
