September 25th, 2010 at 3:21 pmThat’s insane you have John Ajvide Lindqvist twice and Stephen King only once!? Lindqvist is a good writer and I enjoyed “Let the Right One In” but King has written so many outstanding horror novels, magnitudes more and yet you picked only one. How can you omit King’s “The Shining”???
