The Green Mile

Paul Edgecomb is a warden in Block E of the state penitentiary in Cold Mountain.

I wouldn't have wanted to have to wait for the sequel just when things were really getting interesting! King really takes time to develop his characters, and you can really see the way he develops them in this novel with the extrinsic detail of each one.
