He wrote a story called the raft which was about a bunch of kids caught in the middle of a lake on a raft surrounded by a creature that looked like an oil slick and was eating them.

His Bachman books were brilliant, Apt Pupil, Getting it on, the long walk and the running man were all really really good and had a different tone from his usual stuff.
