Bachman Books

The name on the covers was Bachman. But the imagination could only belong to one man: Stephen King.

This classic BACHMAN title, comprising three exciting novellas, will be relaunched as part of the exciting King reissue programme 2021-2024.

The iconic bestseller from Stephen King, writing as Richard Bachman - now with a stunning new cover look.

The Running Man: TV's future-favourite game show, where contestants are hunted to death in the attempt to win a $1 billion jackpot.
