Stephen King Book Club: Dead Zone

Get together with your fellow Stephen King fans to discuss Dead Zone!

Book teaser from back cover: When Johnny Smith was six years old, head trauma caused by a bad ice-skating accident left him with a nasty bruise on his forehead and, from time to time, those hunches…infrequent but accurate snippets of things to come. But it isn’t until Johnny’s a grown man—now having survived a horrifying auto injury that plunged him into a coma lasting four-and-a-half years—that his special abilities really push to the fore. Johnny Smith has come back from the void with an extraordinary gift that becomes his life’s curse…presenting visions of what was and what will be for both the innocent and guilty alike. But when he encounters a ruthlessly ambitious and amoral man who promises a terrifying fate for all humanity, Johnny must find a way to prevent a harrowing predestination from becoming reality…

Moderation: This event will be hosted by Sage, a friend of the bookstore. They have graciously donated their time to hang out with us freaks, and we appreciate having them!

Accessibility: There are no stairs. The bookstore aisles are wide enough for a wheelchair. The bathroom is not, however, and might not be accessible for other disabled people. It's very small and it's in the back office.
