Both Rage and Roadwork were dark realistic stories. The first four books by the mysterious recluse Richard Bachman were all very different books than what his creator Stephen King was known to write.

You are asking yourself, “Who is Richard Bachman?” Well, you actually know him by his real name as he is one of the most famous writers of the last few decades! Back when he was at the height of his powers and the undisputed ruler of the horror genre, Stephen King created the Bachman pen name in an attempt to publish more books than what he was allowed at the time. In my ongoing efforts to read some of the older books on my shelves, I decided to pick up Thinner by Richard Bachman.
