Cujo (book)
A book by Stephen King.
Cujo is so well-paced and scary that people tend to read it quickly, so they mostly remember the scene of the mother and son trapped in the hot Pinto and threatened by the rabid Cujo, forgetting the multifaceted story in which that scene is embedded. … see full wiki

The story is a tale of two families, the Cambers and the Trentons. The Cambers are a poor working class family whilst the Trentons are from a more well-to-do middle class. Cujo is the name of a St, Bernard dog that the Cambers own. Young Tad Trenton has been having nightmares about a monster in his closet.

It's amazing how Stephen King picks up simple ideas and makes an interesting novel. I never read something exagerated from him.

Stephen King has a vast library under his belt. With well over fifty novels published and over 250 short stories, it means King is by far one of the most productive writers of our time. Even after his accident in 1999, King can still churn out a lot of books. He's an interesting author. There are some books that can really blow your mind (The Shining, The Stand), some that can really challenge you (The Dead Zone) and others that are just good stories (like Christine). … more

I had never read a Stephen King book before. Horror/mysteries usually are not my bag. However, I had to try him once and let me tell you, Stephen sure knows how to tell a story. Yes the central theme is about the rabid infested dog Cujo terrorizes a sleepy Maine town. The descriptions of the terror that Cujo is so vivid that you are hooked from the get go with every leap of his crazed dog to each blood letting bite. The side bar stories of the two maritial couples in distress are also quite captivating. … more

Pros: Best writing of Kings yet Cons: hate that dog And they ARE living in your closet! Of all the King books I have read I think this one is the most horrific. Face it, King can take you to some pretty unbelievable places, but in CUJO this could really happen. This monster is real. Most everyone at some time or another has had car trouble, been down on their luck, don't have that extra dime to get the dang thing fixed, think … more
