The Long Walk by Stephen King (Writing as Richard Bachman)

From master storyteller Stephen King, writing under the pseudonym Richard Bachman, comes this powerful novel set in a dystopian near-future America. The Long Walk details a grueling annual competition of stamina and wits where only one contestant survives.

Sixteen-year-old Ray Garraty enters the match, where one hundred boys must maintain a steady pace of four miles per hour, day and night, without stopping. The stakes are absolute: the winner receives 'The Prize'—anything they desire for the rest of their life. The rules are harsh; slow down below the speed limit and receive a warning. Three warnings result in elimination from the game forever. There is no finish line; the winner is simply the last man standing.
