STINGER...an overlooked GEM of ACTION and HORROR

Robert R. McCammon (retired so I've heard) falls somewhere between Stephen King and Dean Koontz. Too often his books are overlooked, but McCammon has a powerful story-telling style and can produce and action scene like nobody's business.

STINGER is one of McCammon's finer works. It tells the story of a small desert town where two aliens have landed. One a peaceful energy being...the other a deadly bounty-hunter. The town characters are introduced...the town is sealed off from the world by an energy field...AND THE STINGER IS TURNED LOOSE!

Where it might not keep you shaking in fear, this book will deliver so much action that the last 200 pages fly by with kinetic force that few authors can achieve.

So where do we stand? McCammon is not as frightening as King. He's more logical and fast-paced than Koontz. And he should not be overlooked for the fine novels he's turned out.

I also recommend Robert R. McCammon's - BLUE WORLD, THEY THIRST, SWAN SONG, and BOY'S LIFE! - an Amazon customer review
