Hodder are boosting Stephen King's backlist with new covers, new author brand lettering and a marketing campaign which directs readers to the right King title for them.
An exciting reissue of Stephen King's debut novel about an outcast teenager with a frightening power which put him on the map and set him on his journey as a household name.
Carrie White is no ordinary girl.
Carrie White has the gift of telekinesis.
To be invited to Prom Night by Tommy Ross is a dream come true for Carrie - the first step towards social acceptance by her high school colleagues.
But events will take a decidedly macabre turn on that horrifying and endless night as she is forced to exercise her terrible gift on the town that mocks and loathes her . . .
There's a Reason He's King
This is a very, very good example of why Stephen King is one of the best-selling writers of all time. Carrie is an expertly woven story, which is saying something because it was one of King's first novels. I love a book where you can really engage with the characters, even if that means hating them. You will hate characters, love others and feel a desperate sympathy for others still. Read the book, then watch the film. Excellent.
