The RegulatorsThe Regulators is a novel by Stephen King under the pseudonym Richard Bachman. It was published in 1996 at the same time as its "mirror" novel, Desperation. The story takes place in the town of Wentworth, Ohio. On Poplar Street, an autistic boy named Seth has gained the power to control reality through the help of a being known as Tak. Soon, Poplar Street begins to change shape, tranforming into a wild west caricature based on what Seth has seen on his television. Meanwhile, the other residents of the street are being attacked by the many beings that Seth's imagination is creating, due to Tak's control over them. These residents are forced to work together to stop Seth and Tak from completely transforming the world around them and stop Tak before he kills anyone else. The Regulators was released simultaneously with Desperation (published by King under his own name). The two novels share many similarities, most notably the cast of characters. The original hardcover versions of the novels had artwork on the cover that connected when the two books were placed side by side. The Regulators was King's last book under the name Richard Bachman (after previously "retiring" it with the novel Thinner). King once said that there may be another Bachman book, but his recent announcement of his retirement may suggest otherwise. ISBNs - ISBN 0670872814 (paperback, 1996)
