Description

"Firestarter" is the mesmerising and menacing story of a sinister government agency, a fateful drug experiment, and a pigtailed girl named Charlie, who has an unimaginably terrifying gift: the power of pyrokinesis.

Reviews

'Stephen King's finest novel yet!the most tightly plotted of King's chillers, it is also the most terrifying' -- Cosmopolitan 'One of the most fertile storytellers of the modern novel' -- The Sunday Times 'King does this better than anyone else. We finished the book in about three non-stop hours after we picked it up' -- Playboy
