"There's a sweetness that feels like something new for King. It's heavy out there right now. Here's something that's not."
--Gilbert Cruz, The New York Times Book Review
"Delightful...What the slim volume lacks in weight, it makes up in pathos...As Carey's weight approaches zero and his center of gravity shifts, the book lifts off to an unforgettable and deeply moving conclusion."

"A slim book about an ordinary man in an extraordinary condition rising above hatred and learning to live with tact and dignity."
--Ron Charles, The Washington Post
"Stephen King still has the power to surprise his beloved 'constant readers.' [King is] a storyteller still at the top of his game. Elevation is a magical tale that entertains and manages to say a little something about the state of our culture in 2018."
