Of the many things that Stephen King does well, as an author, writing surprisingly good coming-of-age stories is right up there. Yes, since he’s largely known for his works of horror, plenty of these do happen to be scary coming-of-age stories, but since there is a certain horror, anxiety, and dread that comes with growing up (sometimes even at the best of times), such a marriage of genres works pretty well.
