The Bachman Books

Includes the story THE LONG WALK. Soon to be a major film from The Hunger Games director Francis Lawrence and starring Mark Hamill (Star Wars), David Jonsson (BAFTA EE Rising Star, Rye Lane), and Cooper Hoffman (Licorice Pizza, Saturday Night Live). For years, readers wrote asking if Richard Bachman was really world-bestselling author Stephen King writing under another name. Now the secret is out – and so, brought together in one volume, are these three spellbinding stories of future shock and suspense. The Long Walk: A chilling look at the ultra-conservative America of the future where a gruelling 450-mile marathon is the ultimate sports competition. Roadwork: An immovable man refuses to surrender to the irresistible force of progress. The Running Man: TV’s future-favourite game show, where contestants are hunted to death in the attempt to win a $1 billion jackpot. Publishers Note: Includes The Running Man which is also published as an individual book.
