Description

Stephen King's apocalyptic vision of a world ravaged by a deadly virus remains as riveting and eerily plausible as ever. The Stand tells the story of a man who escapes from a biological testing facility, unknowingly carrying a deadly strain of super-flu that will wipe out over 99 percent of the world's population. As the survivors struggle to come to terms with their new reality, they must choose between two opposing leaders: a benevolent 108-year-old woman who urges them to build a peaceful community, and a dark and malevolent figure who represents the ultimate evil.
