UNDER THE DOME: It took me over a month to read this finely woven novel, but I finally have all the answers to what and who (but not why). I literally could not put it down for the last 400 pages. I gave it 5 stars on the survey! This is definitely a page turner if you have the time to devote to it. Synopsis: A small town is inexplicably sealed off from the rest of the world. As the "dome" comes down, family members are separated from one another, planes crash, children are orphaned, cars explode on impact with the dome. No one understands what happened, but a few of the Chester's Mill citizens and one itinerant former Iraq vet try to band together to find out. Corrupt politicians, inept police, plus a cast of likeable characters make for a very interesting tale of life inside the dome. Stephen King is very good at making the readers intensely hate the villains and cheer for the good guys. Another great read by the master of supernatural storytelling. You won't put it down until you know what or who is behind the dome!
