I actually think Stephen King is underrated in a weird way. Because he's so popular, and because he's thought of as a "genre fiction" writer, people dismiss him, but his actual writing is quite good. I have a sneaking suspicion that fifty years from now he'll be held in higher literary esteem than he is currently.
