The Long Walk is set in a dystopian America ruled by a totalitarian and militaristic dictator, and where a major source of entertainment is the Long Walk, which consists of a hundred teenage boys walking without rest along U.S.
The Long Walk is a dystopian horror novel published in 1979, under King’s pseudonym Richard Bachman. Ralph also appears in the book Bag of Bones, Insomnia mentions a serial killer from Gerald’s Game, and has a cameo from IT’s Mike Hanlon. Insomnia not only has the horror and fantasy elements typically found in a Stephen King novel, but it also connects to other stories in King's macroverse, mostly the Dark Tower series, with Ralph and his friend Lois learning about the existence of the Crimson King and Ralph having a vision of the Dark Tower. As a result, Ralph also starts to see people’s auras and diminutive white-coated beings he refers to as “little bald doctors”, and he eventually realizes that these aren’t hallucinations, leading him to a conflict between the forces of the Purpose and the Random.
Like many other Stephen King stories, Insomnia is set in the fictional town of Derry, Maine, and it tells the story of Ralph Roberts, a retired widower who begins to suffer from sleep maintenance insomnia, which makes him wake up earlier each night until he can barely sleep for a full hour each night. Insomnia is a horror fantasy novel published in 1994. Related: The Stephen King Novel That He Lost.
