I don't give a tin shit for those who hold the opinion the man is a pulp factory. I got every nickles worth of my money in enjoyment from rhe books and the movie.

Nah, King's not a pulp factory.  Tom Clancy, on the other lihand...

Oh, these are perfectly good books, but (like Ian Fleming and Robert Ludlum), new Jack Ryan novels are being churned out by other people.  It's a tad misleading, because Clancy's name still appears on the covers.  Neat trick, since Clancy's been dead for six years.

Yup. Stephen King might be able to write a book from beyond the grave - but Clancy?
