I love King. He's one of my favorite living authors. Few authors write stories that I enjoy more than King when he's on.
However, I agree with most of JD's analysis of his style, as it were.
I would probably describe his style as workman-like. It gets the job done.
Where I think he excels is, like I said, at writing about things that get under a lot of people's skin. He's good at writing about the things that scare people in general. That's why he's so popular.
In many ways, it's because of his workman-like style that he is so popular and successful. He has a very broad audience, and he doesn't alienate people with his approach.
