Resumen del Editor

From legendary storyteller and master of short fiction Stephen King comes an extraordinary new collection of twelve short stories, many never-before-published, and some of his best EVER.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest. King writes to feel “the exhilaration of leaving ordinary day-to-day life behind,” and in You Like It Darker, listeners will feel that exhilaration too, again and again.

“Two Talented Bastids” explores the long-hidden secret of how the eponymous gentlemen got their skills. In “Danny Coughlin’s Bad Dream,” a brief and unprecedented psychic flash upends dozens of lives, Danny’s most catastrophically. In “Rattlesnakes,” a sequel to Cujo, a grieving widower travels to Florida for respite and instead receives an unexpected inheritance—with major strings attached. In “The Dreamers,” a taciturn Vietnam vet answers a job ad and learns that there are some corners of the universe best left unexplored. “The Answer Man” asks if prescience is good luck or bad and reminds us that a life marked by unbearable tragedy can still be meaningful.

King’s ability to surprise, amaze, and bring us both terror and solace remains unsurpassed. Each of these stories holds its own thrills, joys, and mysteries; each feels iconic. You like it darker? You got it.

Editorial Review

Pace yourself
Did you know that May is Short Story Month? And what better way to enjoy it than having the king of horror himself, Stephen King, release a new anthology of dark and disturbing tales. You Like It Darker features 12 short stories, some new and some fan favorites, just in time to add frightful flair to my list of short stories to binge this month. As a longstanding fan of Stephen King, I was really excited to catch the mentions of popular characters like Cujo and well-established multiverse locations like Castle Rock and Derry, Maine. You Like It Darker is one of King’s longer anthologies, so take your time. You have the whole month of May to finish! —Nicole R., Audible Editor

Long Live The King

This is another wonderful anthology from King. The stories are dark and many catch you off guard just as the twists and turns of the lives we live play out. Each story hooks you and keeps you reading. Each story is filled with the observations and empathy I’ve come to know and love while visiting many of the other tales spun by The One and Only.

this was amazing

Danny Coughlin's Bad Dream, Rattlesnakes and a couple others had me on the edge of my seat.

Worth the wait

I enjoyed all of the stories in this conglomeration, but some of my favorites were definitely answer, man and rattlesnake.

thank god Will Patton is back!

Some really great stories. When Will Patton left on the last book and a new reader came in - it was a bummer since she was a trash narrator. Will Patton and King are the perfect combo. Thank god he's back.

The Master is Back!

I liked that he stayed out of politics! "Holly" made me vomit. I wish he would rewrite it and and add Will Patton as narrator.

We love it darker...

One of his best. No one slays short stories like the one and only Sai King.

My stomach hurts, I’m halfway through and I’m an emotional basket case.

Fantastic narrator of course. Stephen King was ahead of his time when it came to audiobooks. When other authors had monotone narrations Stephen King saw audiobooks as another art form and had narrators that were top shelf. It is really unbelievable that Stephen King can write so much material and each and every release is amazing. These stories are so good that I feel like a wreck after listening to one. I need to take a break and listen to something like we are Bob that doesn’t trigger me emotionally before circling back to this collection. Strongly recommend

Brilliant, as always, fabulous narration

Will Patton delivers most of the excellent stories in this short collection with his uniquely entertaining narration. He brings all the characters to life with emotion and a Pitch Perfect performance.
Two of the stories are narrated by the master of horror himself, Mr. Stephen King and as always it is great to hear him tell these tails directly to us.
Pick up this audiobook and get ready for 20 hours of pure entertainment in which you will be scared, confused, excited but always entertained.

Boring

Rather boring stories with a poor narrative voice that’s made it even more difficult to get into.
