Under the Dome is a 2009 science fiction novel by the American author, Stephen King. Under the Dome is the 58th book published by Stephen King, and it is his 48th novel. The novel focuses on a small Maine town, and tells an intricate, multi-character, alternating perspective story of how the town's inhabitants contend with the calamity of being suddenly cut off from the outside world by an impassable, invisible glass dome-like barrier that seemingly falls out of the sky, transforming the community into a domed city.
This is a great story, lots of angles, lots of terrain to cover. I didn't get the overarching moral message, but I like the journey and progression. I would not say this is a page-turner because that is an over-used phrase. I looked forward to returning to the book on every day that I could.
I look forward to the next Stephen King book that I will read.
