Book Review: "The Institute" By Stephen King

If only we all had a mind like the King....

Boys prepped to use as psychic drones can only be written by The ONE!

You'll understand this later as there's of course an under lying tone in this one with a political motive but very subtle.

Look here's the scoop: If you're a TK and see dots you get telep however if you're TP and get to see dots you can move spoons.

Still not with me ok?!

Well how about we try this...

You see there's surveillance bulbs with fake surveillance dead zones and "When they stop testing, you might only have three days."

So in other words the kids with high BDNF scores came with certain psychic capabilities TK/TP or both sort of like the APGAR tests performed upon newborns.

Now look this is Stephen King you know the shiite going down so yes we have the scary forest in which kids are being treated like animals for experimental purposes and one happens to escape this hell hole via the housekeeper's help.

She sadly was found dead from apparent suicide or shall we say hanging.

Now this compound is operating much like a nuclear missile base or germ chemical warfare.
Oh and that tracker that was upon the ear of the child ...well it got ripped out during the escape as a knife was used to prevent being uncovered.


We have so much action with rowboats , boxcars, telekinetics, stasi lights, hidden flashdrives, and so much more that I won't spoil the fun.

Suffice to say this is an edge of the seat thriller like only Stephen the master of thrills can deliver.

In case you need a recap- This story involves kidnapping kids with weak psychic powers and feeding them in essence mental steroids to basically kill people.

For those who are squeamish like myself you may have saved yourself by staying away from King's books till now...

His last few have been superb and not overly dark, dreary, bloody and the rest so go on and take a chance with this one. I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much as I have as the pages are lengthy and the type is small but it's filled to the brim with heart pounding suspense.
