The world is succumbing to a deadly virus, wiping out 99% of humanity — this is the chilling reality in Stephen King's 'The Stand'. A gripping story about humanity's resilience, survival, and the moral dilemmas we face. King introduces us to various characters, each with unique traits, stories, and responses to this disaster.
