In the woods outside Haven, Maine, writer Bobbi Anderson stumbles over something buried; something massive, metallic, and not of this Earth. As she digs it up, strange things start happening. People get smarter, stronger, sicker. Machines begin to run without power. And something beneath the town starts waking up.
The Tommyknockers is a sprawling tale of transformation and contamination, where the horror doesnât just come from the starsâŚit seeps into your bones, your thoughts, your sense of self. As the townspeople change, the question becomes: how much of your humanity are you willing to give up for a taste of something more?
Blending science fiction and body horror with themes of addiction and identity, this is Kingâs warped, wild answer to the classic alien invasion story.
