Like with all audiobooks, your personal enjoyment comes down to 2 things: the reader and the reader. If the person "reading" the book has the appeal of a root canal, I don't care if Stephen King wrote it or a 5 year old, the audio version won't appeal to me either. They have done a great job picking these readers. All of them, especially Joe Mantegna, have the ability to take you there, in the middle of the action. Stephen King will always be awesome, but to hear his work read by people who have talent takes it to the next level.
I read the story and it had my hair standing on end. I saw it on "Tales from the Darkside" and that was something else but hearing and let my imagination take over? OMG! I swear I could see the woman's tears on her face as she cried.
I enjoyed the mix of narrators, along with the afterword in the author's voice. Makes me wish I had purchased the full collection of stories.
These are some of the worst stories I have ever read or heard! They're just plain awful vampire stories. The longest of them all is Steven's narration of a multitude of story titles and why and how he wrote them. It was a boring never ending 3 of the 4 disc fiasco!
I listened to this book on CD while on a long flight. It really held my interest. I can't think of one story that I didn't like. I enjoyed the professional touch using actors.
Love Stephen King short stories. They are just the right length. I can read one before I go to sleep each night, they just fit the bill. I hope to get more of the short story series.
This audio book of short stories is just right for a spooky ride. For any King fans, I recommend it.
Pretty good. Not Stephen King's best but worth checking out.Put it on your list but dont put it at the top
