Had this book been about 350 pages, it would have been far above average. Sadly, it was bloated and to be honest, a bit preachy. Certainly not what I expected from the Messrs. King. The last 300 pages are far better than the first 400, so if you are struggling in the first half, hang in there and you will be rewarded. I wonder if the premise of the story might have been the brainchild of the junior King. It has the feel of a millennial idea, which is not a criticism, merely an observation. I can detect which King is writing in several places, but only because I know the senior King's storycraft so well. I don't think a casual reader would notice. While not the finest work in the King repertoire, it has some fine moments and some memorable characters.
