Sixteen-year-old Ray Garraty is about to compete in the annual grueling match of stamina and wits known as the Long Walk. One hundred boys must keep a steady pace of four miles per hour day and night, without ever stopping. The winner gets “The Prize”—anything he wants for the rest of his life. But the rules of the Long Walk are harsh and the stakes could not be higher. There is no finish line—the winner is the last man standing. Contestants cannot receive any outside aid whatsoever. Slow down under the speed limit and you’re given a warning. Three warnings and you’re out of the game—forever.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten by King when he was a college student and published in 1979 under the pseudonym Richard Bachman, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Long Walk\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is an unforgettable and timeless masterpiece that showcases King’s genius for character building and his visionary storytelling.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ingram","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47556391796977,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0305\/9757\/8890\/files\/longwalk_fd6727b3-1bdb-4314-b056-fa905f469baa.jpg?v=1765050887","url":"https:\/\/shopsouthandpine.com\/products\/the-long-walk-by-stephen-king-hardback","provider":"South \u0026 Pine and Blue Apple Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
