_Bag of Bones_ by Stephen King is a bit of a departure for King. It is less of a horror story and more a story of the supernatural. However, it still includes some of the mandatory King elements, such as his signature apocalyptic ending. The romantic, gothic feel of the story is definitely a change for King, and a welcome one at that.

Rather than bombard the reader with the normal slew of uglies that go bump in the night (and day), this story unfolds slowly in the tradition of many classic romantic ghost stories. Some King fans will not be pleased with _Bag of Bones_, but others will see it as a sign of King's growth as a writer. Recommended.
