Written in 2013, almost after 33 years to it’s prequel, Doctor Sleep is much deserved and worthy sequel in my opinion. Like many other King fans, I was keen to know what happened to Danny and his mother, Wendy Torrance after the awful incident at The Overlook Hotel and about his unique power which Mr. Hallorann called, ‘Shining’. A few years after the Torrance family move out of the disaster at The Overlook Hotel and try to start a new life, Danny is still haunted by the inhabitants of the Overlook. Mr. Hallorann however takes care of it, guiding Danny all the way to get rid of the evil and control his powers. Danny, a middle aged man now, troubled with horrific childhood and drifting years to forget the past, ends up being alcoholic like his father. Tired of his unpleasant life and to reboot everything, Danny finally settles down in a New Hampshire town. He takes a job in a hospice-a home for the terminally ill, where he provides comfort to the dying with his gifted power, becoming Doctor Sleep. Anonymous Alcoholics community, helps him get rid of drinking and lead a good life. On other side of the story, there is a tribe called ‘The True Knot’, travelling across America in RVs, in search of sustenance. They live-off and gain some sort of immortality (like the vampires) on the steam of young children possessing the shining, torturing them to death. The leader of the tribe, Rose the Hat, come across a teen-age girl, Abra Stone with immense shining and now she is on a search to locate her and extract all the steam from her. Abra, having known about this through her senses, reaches out Danny to help her in this. Together they are on an epic battle to eradicate the True Knot and their evil intentions, saving Abra and the likes from the dangers of the tribe. Though the prequel was an epic horror, this installment of the story is more of a dystopian thriller. I feel it is better this way and it has appealed to most of the King fans the same way. Throughout the novel, the relationship between Dan and Abra was so compelling and their chemistry was profoundly written by the master-storyteller. (Do I even need to comment on the writing? Do I?) In all my honesty, I must say the story was quite expected and I knew what was coming, but that didn’t change the thrill of reading it. I have noticed it in a few of his earlier novels that I read, King throws you the spoilers, then grasp you with his story telling powers that even after you know what’s going to happen next, you just want to continue reading with the same eagerness to know ‘HOW’ it happened. That’s what I expect from a good novel and that’s what you get from KING! A great read indeed! I’m just waiting for this novel to get adapted into a movie! Review: Do not compare it with "The shining". - Well, I loved reading 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 so it was obvious for me to love 𝘋𝘤𝘰𝘵𝘰𝘳 𝘚𝘭𝘦𝘦𝘱 as it was the sequel of 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨. But If you're gonna compare it with 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 you wouldn't find 𝘋𝘤𝘰𝘵𝘰𝘳 𝘚𝘭𝘦𝘦𝘱 as good as 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 was. The scariest part of the book comes at the beginning when he is revisited by some of the ghosts from the Overlook. Those expecting a scare as good as 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 will be disappointed. •~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~• Coming back to the story of 𝘋𝘤𝘰𝘵𝘰𝘳 𝘚𝘭𝘦𝘦𝘱! A few years after the Torrance family move out of the disaster at The Overlook Hotel and try to start a new life, Danny is still haunted by the inhabitants of the Overlook. Mr. Hallorann however takes care of it, guiding Danny all the way to get rid of the evil and control his powers. Danny, a middle aged man now, still troubled with the horrified childhood. On the other hand there's a 'True Knot', of immortal people who takes steam from people with shining by torturing/killing them. Besides there's a teen-age girl, Abra Stone with immense shining and now in danger because leader of the 'True Knot' Rose the hat tries to reach out to her. Abra having known about this through her senses, reaches out Danny to help her in this. •~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~• Although there was not much action till atleast I was well into the second half of the book. I must say the story was quite expected and I knew what was coming, but that didn’t change the thrill of reading it. I'm a King fan so for me it was a good read!♥️ ****************************** About the book quality : 1. I ordered 'The shining' and 'Doctor sleep' together. Both were not in right condition. I replaced 'The shining' but 'Doctor sleep', I couldn't. I don't don't know what was the problem. 2. This book was dented from upside right corner of the cover which was disappointing. And more disappointing thing was that I wasn't able to replace it. 3. Otherwise inside of the book was everything perfect. I loved reading it. ****************************** #Doctor sleep #StephenKing #OverlookHotel #DanTorrance #Danny ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #70,705 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #157 in Horror (Books) #357 in Thrillers and Suspense #1,518 in Contemporary Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 42,239 Reviews | ## Images ![DOCTOR SLEEP - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Yh89b8S5L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like many other King fans *by W***S on 8 June 2018* Doctor Sleep is one of the most anticipated King novels, sequel to the masterpiece, The Shining.

I enjoy reading his books. I enjoy the movies that are based on his books. I liked this book. It is not STUNNINGLY great but I just kept on going and I just finished it in a couple of hours straight. His books are like that. Once you have started you just want to keep on reading them. I liked the plot. It was very scary. I felt very scared. It is not a good idea to read this book at night because it is so scary. It has a happy ending, but there are many things that happen in the book that will make you feel sad or angry. My biggest problem was that the text was TINY. I had to scrunch up my eyes to read it. It was hard to read. I had to turn the lights on and wear my glasses. But I got used to it. My other problem is that the style of writing is very 70s and 80s. I have read his earlier books and this book is stylistically very similar. Sometimes I felt I wasn't in present-day America but was in 70s and 80s America. But I love Stephen King's writing. It is a very good sequel to "The Shining". If you ever wondered, "What happened to Danny Torrance?", you know now. The answer is he grew up to be a psychic alcoholic violent badass. He is now little bit like Lee Child's Jack Reacher character (Lone badass vs the world). I enjoyed it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sc/products/80082681-doctor-sleep](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/80082681-doctor-sleep) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
