Steven King is a shit writer. He's a pop writer, like some one watching TV and trying to write based on it while flipping channels. His ideas weren't bad, but execution sucked. Don't really care what he's doing recently. He's been becoming more PC over time, which just made his works even worse.
That never really bothered me. Kids do have sex way before they should. It happens and acting like it doesn't is just people deluding themselves. That idea that people shouldn't write about things like rape, or child soldiers, or kids having sex is just as much PC non-sense as all the rest. It wasn't really written to titillate. That he caved on his writing makes him so much worse in my eyes.
He really is the most overrated writer of all time. There are nuggets of good ideas in most of his books, but he reliably destroys them in short order because he simply doesn’t know when to stop. Once you see it, you can’t miss it. You’ll be reading a King book, encounter a cool idea, and then watch in horror as he piles like ten retarded ideas on top of it. He can’t maintain cohesion or logical consistency in any of his stories. He always brings in some bizarre, disconnected, unnecessary elements that ruins the story.

...and the creepy kid sex stuff. Can't leave that out when discussing King.
"For your next gangbang scene, how about a little more PG, and a lot less 13?"

Technically it was a gangbang and not an orgy.
Double technically it was more of a train than a gangbang.
Someone needs to seize Stephen King’s hard drive, is my point.
