Didn't like Blaze as much as I did with the previous books that I read from King, but I tell you that you should give it a try. Why I haven't liked it? I don't consider something "nice" a book with many pieces of swearing fragments nor with a very very dumb character. For me Blaze's dumbness was something way too exagerated. I mean, being dumb in some cases means you are funny, but he was the type of annoying.
