Book Description

The Institute follows twelve-year-old Luke Ellis, a brilliant boy who is abducted and taken to a secret facility where children with psychic abilities are imprisoned and subjected to brutal experiments. As Luke bonds with other captives and searches for a way to escape, the novel weaves suspense, moral outrage, and quiet heroism into a chilling story about power, resistance, and the cost of sacrificing children for a perceived greater good.

About Author

Stephen King (born 1947) is an American author widely regarded as one of the most influential and bestselling writers of modern fiction. Raised in Maine, King began writing at an early age and struggled financially before achieving breakthrough success with Carrie in 1974. The novel’s popularity launched a prolific career marked by an extraordinary output across multiple decades, with many of his works rooted in small-town American life and psychological realism.

His novels and short stories—including The Shining, It, Misery, and The Dark Tower series—have been adapted into numerous films and television series, cementing his cultural impact. With over 400 million copies sold worldwide, King’s legacy rests on his ability to make the ordinary terrifying and the fantastical profoundly human.
