Title: The Institute Pdf A Novel
From number one New York Times best-selling author Stephen King comes the most riveting and unforgettable story of kids confronting evil since It - publishing just as the second part of It, the movie, lands in theaters.
In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis' parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there's no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents - telekinesis and telepathy - who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and 10-year-old Avery Dixon. They are all in Front Half. Others, Luke learns, graduated to Back Half, "like the roach motel," Kalisha says. "You check in, but you don't check out."
In this most sinister of institutions, the director, Mrs. Sigsby, and her staff are ruthlessly dedicated to extracting from these children the force of their extranormal gifts. There are no scruples here. If you go along, you get tokens for the vending machines. If you don't, punishment is brutal. As each new victim disappears to Back Half, Luke becomes more and more desperate to get out and get help. But no one has ever escaped from The Institute.
As psychically terrifying as Firestarter, and with the spectacular kid power of It, The Institute is Stephen King's gut-wrenchingly dramatic story of good vs. evil in a world where the good guys don't always win.
Best book about friendship I’ve read in a long time Couldn’t put it down. King’s got a way with capturing the essence of childhood, the struggles of maturing and how the loss of innocence is the greatest hurdle in our lives.Shut up about Trump It’s getting old and banal Mr. King. I was hoping to enjoy this book but alas, not to be. A word of advice though... If you continue to write, avoid politics so you don’t alienate half your reading audience because we are after all the force behind your income. Your Trump digs have nothing to do with the story. You're just a sorry old man trying to grand stand. I pick up a book to forget about the trivial day to day political b.s. so why do you feel the need to shove your beliefs down my throat? Wish I could get my money back on this but I won't purchase anything else from this author. I might also add that this book repeated itself over and over, had a slow moving story line and was hard to finish. Might be a good time for you to retire Mr. King...Another Dark Lord Masterpiece Another banger from our Dark Lord. Stephen King's voice is present and engaging in this hearty thriller. While not as horrific as some of his other (over 50!) novels, this is just as addicting. Like his other novels, this one has a steady build and is impossible to put down. Two thumbs way up.And, incidentally, contrary to what I have read elsewhere, one cannot read The Institute without being reminded of some of the less-than-ideal circumstances many children face today near certain boarders. However, this book sweeps broad in its impact and is not limited to any certain circumstance.(Also, it's nice to see that Stephen King finally got a proper author photo.)
