Pet Sematary
by: Stephen King
This book is simply the best horror book by Stephen King I've ever read during my whole life. And I doubt if I'll live to read a better one. What touched me in this book was not the horror itself. What makes this book a must-read & re-re-read is the plot along with the characters. That's the most human book of Stephen King, the one where he could tell the world "I'm one of the best writers of this planet!". And yes, he really is. If you pay attention to the inner feelings, the ones that are not described in the book but the ones the author makes the reader wonder about, you'll face feelings, emotions and people that are inside us all, but that we rarely show to the world outside because the mankind lost the capacity to move, the capacity of be touched by things, of letting your heart cry... That's what Stephen King works in here: the true emotions, the feeling of losing and don't knowing how to go on without the ones that go... Things like that. If you want a book of wonderful story, if you want a book of true feelings, that's your book.

The Running Man
by: Stephen King
The Running Man is a short book, tightly written to be read and enjoyed quickly. The future world it depicts is vividly captured with a few essential details. The action is also fast paced and, though the novel differs from much of King's other work, the sardonic social commentary reveals a pleasing glimmer of King's characteristically twisted sense of humor.

Fractured Frazzled Folk Fables and Fairy Farces
by: Jay Dubya
Fractured Frazzled Folk Fables and Fairy Farces is adult literature that satirizes classic children’s folk tales, fables and fairy tales into more mature presentations featuring adult language, content and humor.
Author Jay Dubya goes right to work retelling Aesop’s Fables into “A Sap’s Fables.” Adult renditions of “The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse,” “The Boy Who Cried Wolf,” “The Wind and the Sun,” “A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing,” “The Lion and the Mouse,” “The Crow and the Pitcher,” and “The Rabbit and the Turtle” are all cleverly portrayed. Other famous fables rewritten into adult accounts are “The Fox and the Crow,” “The Goose That Laid the Golden Egg,” “The Grasshopper and the Ants,” “The Lark and Its Offspring,” “The Miller, His Son and the Jackass,” “Belling the Cat” and finally “The Dog, the Fox and the Stream.”

Thirteen Sick Tasteless Classics, Part IV
by: Jay Dubya
Thirteen Sick Tasteless Classics, Part IV satirizes and spoofs thirteen classic stories from U.S., British, French Russian, Arabian literature and from Greek mythology.
Jay Dubya goes right to work retelling and sideswiping tales from American literature. Richard Connell's "The Most Dangerous Game," O. Henry's "A Retrieved Reformation," Edgar Allan Poe's "The Masque of the Red Death," Jack London's "Love of Life," and Mark Twain's "Tom and Huck's Gang" are thoroughly degenerated.
British Literature is also corrupted with imaginative adult renditions of Rudyard Kipling's "The Elephant's Child," Wilkie Collins's "Blow Up With the Brig," Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Adventure of the Speckled Band" and Charles Dickens's "Ebenezer Scrooge." Finally, Greek mythology is assaulted with a hilarious retelling of "Oedipus."
