Nice quiz! You might want to force it to go in order, though. And @rockgolf, what? The Stand? It? The Dark Tower? Those are all pretty long! I'll give you Bag of Bones and Insomnia, though.

I agree with Jefrunner - The Stand and The Dark Tower were his best books...

Personally, I have always liked his short stories more than his novels and my favorite novel by him is The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon (I think it's just over 200 pages) but he doesn't write many bad books, Geralds Game is the only one that comes to mind and I loved The Cell, The Stand and of course The Dark Tower series.

rockgolf as mentioned is wrong, as many of King's most beloved books are extremely long. Actually to me he's best with those books that are so long (usually because he has so much to tell and was so passionate about the story) or so short (the short stories and novellas). It's the middle distance books that trip him up, and you wonder if his heart was in it.

I kept thinking that the one with the car was "Christine".

He peaked with Misery and Eyes of the Dragon in '87. Everything was downhill after that, with the exception of some of his short stories...

"From A Buick 8" or "Christine" means I saw a devil car.

Devil cars tend to be classic automobiles.

Some of these books are pretty long and heavy going... but some are Thinner!

If you squint a bit at the blanked out titles, you can read some of them.

Quite hard for us non-Americans (specifically Brits), as these aren't the covers over here.

Skeleton Crew is not a novel, it's a collection of short stories.

I must have typed "Christine" at least a dozen times. Clearly I haven't kept up with Mr. King over the past decade or so.

I thinks it's a travesty not to have even one of the Dark Tower series here.

I really loved the last book. I think it's one of his best.

This is such a good quiz. The only problem with it was that it made me think of the Dark Half movie, which despite being directed by George Romero was still one of the worst theatrical adaptations.

Agree Skeleton Crew shouldn't be here. I got it at the last second because of the illustration, but hadn't been considering the short story collections.

@Tess - I'm in the UK and have a lot of these covers. Think there must just be different versions/reprints etc :)

@packsoldier: If you haven't read 11/22/63, you are missing a spectacular book. I rank it as the #3 SK book, behind The Stand and IT.

@Big_E, this shattered my image of SK, in a good way. While I never solely considered him a horror writer, 11/22/63 (which I am still reading, btw) is a book that a lot of authors wish they could write.

Agreed with Big_E about 11/22/63. Certainly right up there with his best work. Extremely and thoroughly researched, with a very intelligent plot.

I got less than half, but I recognized all the covers. My wife loves his novels, and all of these are on our bookshelf.

I agree about Skeleton Crew. The quiz specifies novels and Skeleton Crew is short stories, not a novel. But a good quiz all in all.

Are all of these the first release covers? I have several of these books, but with much different covers, hence why I only scored whatever instead of almost all.

Novel or not, Skeleton Crew contains some of his best work. King generally handles the endings of short stories better than novels. Several of those stories still give me the creeps.

The Carrie cover looks more like the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.
