From Publishers Weekly

King's new novel, a numbing variation on Invasion of the Body Snatchers,

offers its own best commentary on itself. Nearly one-third of the way

through the 560-page book, protagonist Bobbi Anderson, a writer of westerns,

describes what she has stumbled upon in her backyard to her friend Gardener,

an alcoholic poet: "It was a flying saucer. No self-respecting science-fiction

writer would put one in his story, and if he did, no self-respecting

editor would touch it with a ten-foot pole.. . . It is the oldest wheeze

in the book." After the vampirish Tommyknockers in the spaceship have

wrought their evil magic upon the inhabitants of Haven (Tommyknockers

live on the blood of comatose humans circulated through mind-reading

PCs connected to VCRs), the unfortunate townspeople have, it seems,

"become" (the word, over-used and never explained, is King's) "something

else" (the vague words are also the author's). The "gadgets" of the

town "become" living beings that kill (there are marauding hedge cutters

and Coke machines, Electrolux vacuums, Yamaha motorcycles and flying

smoke detectors ) and The Tommyknockers is consumed by the rambling

prose of its author. Taking a whole town as his canvas, King uses too-broad

strokes, adding cartoonlike characters and unlikely catastrophes like

so many logs on a fire; ultimately he loses all semblance of style,

carefully structured plot or resonant meaning, the hallmarks of his

best writing. It is clear from this latest work that King himself has

"become" a writing machinethis is his fourth novel since It was published

14 months ago; the faithful readers not overwhelmed by his latest fictional

"gadget" are likely to wonder, as poet Gardener does near the novel's

end: "What had it all been for? He realized miserably that he was never

going to know."

From Library Journal

Yet another mammoth horror novel from King, this dark tale depicts a

small town's fatal encounter with creatures from outer space. Events

start with Roberta Anderson, a writer of Old West novels, unearthing

a flying saucer on her remote wooded property. Five hundred pages later

alcoholic poet Jim Gardener, Roberts's former English teacher, finds

himself aboard the flying saucer in outer space. In the interval the

creatures (Tommyknockers) destroy the citizenry of Haven, Maine. While

this is not one of King's more original novels, it does have plenty

of blood and guts, macabre humor, and a well-wrought realization of

the New England countryside. No doubt King's legions of fans will demand

it. BOMC main selection. James B. Hemesath, Adams State Coll. Lib.,
