Description
In this gripping national bestseller, master storyteller Stephen King, writing under the pen name Richard Bachman, presents a harrowing tale of endurance and survival. The story follows sixteen-year-old Ray Garraty, who, despite his mother’s objections, enters the Long Walk—a brutal annual competition of sheer will and stamina.
Each year, one hundred boys take part in this relentless test, walking without rest at a minimum pace of four miles per hour. There are no breaks, no outside assistance, and no second chances. Falling below the required speed earns a warning, and after three warnings, the consequence is fatal. There is no set finish line—only one contestant will survive to claim the ultimate prize: anything he desires for the rest of his life.
Set against the backdrop of a dystopian America, *The Long Walk* explores the limits of human endurance, the bonds that form under extreme circumstances, and the price of victory in a game where losing means death.
