Query: Simply boring

I cannot believe this book was written by the same author who wrote The Stand. Halfway through reading the book I put it away for a couple of weeks just to see if I would enjoy it more after a break. Nope. It was still as boring then as it was when I initially started reading it.Could be that Stephen King has run out of ideas for a novel?Or could it be that his editors simply let him coast on his once-justified fame? Either way, save your money, skip this one and wait for his next novel to come out.
