Publisher Description
Includes the stories THE LONG WALK, made into a major film by The Hunger Games director Francis Lawrence and THE RUNNING MAN, also a film starring Glenn Powell.
For years, readers wrote asking if Richard Bachman was really world-bestselling Stephen King writing under another name. Now the secret is out - and so, brought together in one volume, are these three spellbinding stories of future shock and suspense.
The Long Walk: A chilling look at the ultra-conservative America of the future where a grueling 450-mile marathon is the ultimate sports competition.
Roadwork: An immovable man refuses to surrender to the irresistible force of progress.
The Running Man: TV's future-favourite game show, where contestants are hunted to death in the attempt to win a $1 billion jackpot.

He thought he could hide??
I think it took me 2 pages to start thinking " this guy is very similar to Stephen King" then by page 6 I thought it was impossible that 2 people could write so similar!! You can run but you can't hide seems to be the mantra in his books so he must have known we avid readers of all things King wouldn't be fooled so easily!
These are a little different to the normal fare he serves but still a great read!
