The Bachman Books
Description
This omnibus collection brings together four gripping early novels from Richard Bachman, showcasing the raw intensity and social commentary that defined his early work. Rage explores the dark psychology of a high school student pushed to the breaking point, while The Long Walk presents a haunting vision of a dystopian competition where survival is the ultimate prize. Roadwork follows an ordinary man's desperate stand against an unstoppable system, and The Running Man delivers a pulse-pounding thriller set in a future where the poor are hunted for entertainment. Complemented by the revealing essay "Why I Was Bachman," this collection offers readers insight into the author's creative process while delivering four unforgettable tales of individuals confronting impossible circumstances and the forces arrayed against them.
