"The Stand, complete and uncut ... is a book that has everything. Adventure, romance, prophecy, allegory, satire, fantasy, realism, apocalypse. Great!"
- The New York Times Book Review

The Complete & Uncut Edition

In 1978, Stephen King published The Stand, the novel that is now considered one of his finest works. But as it was first published, The Stand was incomplete, because more than 150,000 words had been cut from the original manuscript. Since then, Stephen King's apocalyptic vision has been restored to its entirety. The Stand: The Complete & Uncut Edition includes more than 500 pages of material deleted, along with material that King added as he reworded the manuscript for its next generation of fans. New characters were introduced and familiar ones endowed with new depths. Both the beginning and ending were changed. What emerged was a gripping work with the scope and moral complexity of a true epic.

For the hundreds of thousands of fans who read The Stand in its original version and wanted more, this complete and uncut edition is Stephen King's gift. And those who are reading The Stand for the first time will discover a triumphant and eerily plausible work of the imagination that takes on the issues that will determine our survival.

"Extra pages of subplots, character development, conversation, interior dialogue, spiritual soul-searching, blood, bone and gristle make King's best novel better still."
- Publishers Weekly

"As brilliant a dark dream as has ever been dreamed in this century."
- The Palm Beach Post

"For the legions of King fans who read the book in its original form and wished it would never end."
- The Macon Telegraph & News

"Strong, intense ... a haunting vision given its greatest life."
- Kirkus Reviews
