Review the institute by stephen king6/25/2023 I realised I was clenching my jaw so much reading it, I had to pop in a mouth guard. One disturbing element is the sheer degree of torture the children are made to endure in the experiments, it might be too much for some readers to hear about children being subject to some of those tests. King is the master of suspense and this novel takes that to a new level. The book is cleverly paced and readers won't even notice the pages passing. Though the book is intimidatingly large, like all of King's books, it's an engaging read. Unfortunately, he's told no one has ever escaped either. They are promised they'll be returned to their parents after some more experimentation at the back of the Institute but since no one returns, Luke is suspicious. Many, like Luke, have some extraordinary power but some display none. He’s back to that standard that his fans love. The Institute, much like Sleeping Beauties felt like a trip back in time by Mr King. evil in a world where the good guys don’t always win. They are all subjected to injections, experiments and tests. As psychically terrifying as Firestarter, and with the spectacular kid power of It, The Institute is Stephen King’s gut-wrenchingly dramatic story of good vs. He finds he is with other children with similar stories at 'the Institute'. until one night he's kidnapped and he wakes in a room identical to his own, but with no windows. Just as the reader will be drawn into his fascinating story the perspective shifts to that of Luke Ellis, a 12 year old gifted boy who has a bright future ahead. The Institute starts with the story of Tim Jaimeson, an officer who left his job. ' The Institute' by Stephen King is disturbing yet thought-provoking and all King fans will love it.
