Firestarter is a science fiction-horror thriller novel by Stephen King, first published in September 1980. In July and August 1980, two excerpts from the novel were published in Omni. In 1981, Firestarter was nominated as Best Novel for the British Fantasy Award, Locus Poll Award, and Balrog Award. In 1984, it was adapted into a film.
Fast-paced with none of the flab one has come to expect from King (until the denoument, where he meanders for twenty pages). Full of vivid imagery.
