Richard Bachman's Published Books
in the late 1970s and early 80s, King wanted to write more than one book per year, but his publishers were concerned about oversaturating the market. He also wanted to know whether his books were successful just because he had achieved some level of fame; that is, were they best-sellers just because people wanted to read the latest Stephen King.
So King invented the alter-ego of Richard Bachman and released four works under that pseudonym: Rage (1977), The Long Walk (1979), Roadwork (1981), and The Running Man (1982) before he was discovered. He wrote several additional works as Bachman: 1984 - Thinner (1984), 1996 - The Regulators (1996) and Blaze (2007)
