NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE - Stephen King's terrifying classic.'They float...and when you're down here with me, you'll float, too.'To the children, the town was their whole world. To the adults, knowing better, Derry Maine was just their home town: familiar, well-ordered for the most part. A good place to live.It is the children who see - and feel - what makes the small town of Derry so horribly different. In the storm drains, in the sewers, IT lurks, taking on the shape of every nightmare, each one's deepest dread. Sometimes IT reaches up, seizing, tearing, killing . . .Time passes and the children grow up, move away and forget. Until they are called back, once more to confront IT as IT stirs and coils in the sullen depths of their memories, reaching up again to make their past nightmares a terrible present reality.

IT is the kind of story only King could write; humorous, spooky, heart-breaking but also heart-warming with unexpected, but well foreshadowed, twists. IT's cliffhangers are genuienly mind-boggling and will leave you wanting to devour 100 more pages just to see what's gonna happen.
All the characters in this book felt like real, fully fleshed out people with their own respective strengths and weaknesses.
While this is not the best *first* Stephen King book to read, it is definitely one of - if not the - most enjoyable one and definitely his Magnum Opus.
Desive vyprávění, úžasný slohový styl, King umí vykreslit postavy tak živé, že se s nimi snadno identifikujete. A o to víc cítíte, co se jim děje. Mrazivá kniha!

* I saw a lot of the reviews on the internet. Most of the reviews were positive. That was the reason I decided to read the book. But for me was the story too slow. In the book there are more that thousand pages and I was able to read 131 pages only.
* the books from Mr Stephen King are not for me. Sorry! :-/
