I borrowed this book from a friend and enjoyed it so much that I decided to purchase it. It is a great assortment of short story thrillers so you know it will never get dull.
I love Stephen King books and am trying to build a collection of all his titles. This was one I read several years ago, but was not able to purchase at the time.
The opening story of this book held me riveted, trying to figure our the plot. However, I don't think a lot of the other stories in the book lived up to the first. The book includes comments from King for every short story, which is kind of cool. It also contains his famous e-book. Overall, if you like King, you will like this book. It's not his greatest ever, but the man has put out some stuff that is pretty darn hard to surpass. I like that the stories are only about 30-40 pages each. Makes it a great read for a King fan with a busy life. Overall, 4 stars out of 5 :).
I recently finished the Bachman Books after all these years of intending to read it. It was excellent, so I picked up this collection of short stories. I have to say that no matter what Mr. King writes about, it is always entertaining and always kind of creepy!! There was only one story in the collection of 14 that really never grabbed me. Not bad!! If you are a King fan this is a fantastic read. If you have never read his works before, this would be a very good place to become instantly enthralled. Definately a don't miss!!
