For conditions, please view our photographs. Mayhem and violence are unleashed around the world when a pulse from a mysterious source transforms all cell phone users into savage, unthinking, homicidal maniacs, and only a small band of “normies” who somehow avoided the technological attack can stop the rampage.

Reviews:

• It was an interesting concept. The end did leave me wondering whether another end would have been better suited. Overall, a good read!
• The Cell is a perfect holiday read, with an engaging plot that is simple to follow. The story captures how easy it would be to cause major damage in today’s society, where everyone uses a mobile phone on a daily basis. But the characters in Cell are nowhere near as moving and believable as the evil villain, Greg Stillson, in King’s’ ‘Dead Zone’ , or the heroic father and daughter in King’s ‘Firestarter’.
