I have to second Ricky's comment and reiterate something I've said before: King really is a master of the ever-growing buildup, layering tension and anticipation on more tension and anticipation. To date, the story has come to about 63 pages but, so far, it has all been building up very gradually to the main events - the women's respective sexfights and -perhaps - another sexual encounter between Maggie and Amber. It's been one long extended tease! But it works really well and has left this reader, at least, practically salivating with anticipation for what comes next! Wonderfully done.
