The main character(s) has some sort of power or sixth sense, and other evils forces are trying to kill them, and in turn, getting their powers, to use for master plan or other evil

I think his books are really about the nature of humans, both the good and the bad. B/c of that, they deal with love, hate, evil, greed, triumph, and tragedy (the dog almost always dies!).
I think many of his books also deal with the ability of human nature to overcome obstacles...the triumph of something essentially human over something essentially evil. Of course, in some of his novels (particularly the Bachman books) human nature, at least the good aspects of it, don't triumph in the way we might wish.

In most of his books besides the obvious paranormal experiences,they are generally set in Maine.

he wrote the derry books about people living under the radar of "normal" society - kids, and old people - the third one was supposed to feature homeless people, but i didnt read that one
needful things - the ultimate undoing of society will be the secret /inner jealousies, insecurities etc . . . of its citizens themselves sometimes what is most frightening is what lives in the hearts of men, and even yourself thats a general one
