Stephen King
A number-one national best seller
Since his wife died, Ralph Roberts has been having trouble sleeping. Each night he wakes up a bit earlier until he's barely sleeping at all. During his late-night walks, he observes some strange things going on in Derry, Maine. He sees colored ribbons streaming from people's heads, two strange little men wandering around town after dark, and more. He begins to suspect that these visions are something more than hallucinations brought on by lack of sleep.
There's a definite mean streak running through this small New England city; underneath its ordinary surface awesome and terrifying forces are at work. The dying has been going on in Derry for a long, long time. Now Ralph is part of it...and lack of sleep is the least of his worries.
Returning to the same Maine town where It took place, a town that has haunted Stephen King for decades, Insomnia blends King's trademark bone-chilling realism with supernatural terror to create yet another masterpiece of suspense.

Featured Article: We're Your #1 Fans—A Stephen King Character Guide
With a mind-boggling portfolio of 62 novels and more than 200 short stories (and counting!), Stephen King undeniably reigns supreme over literary horror. From Danny Torrance to the dreaded Pennywise, check out some of his most iconic characters with this comprehensive look. (But beware: there are spoilers ahead! So, much like when you press play on a Stephen King audiobook, you should proceed with caution.)

If you're new to Stephen King, i'd suggest that you read Salem's Lot, The Stand, or It first. If you have read It and the Dark Tower, this book will be much more meaningful. This book mentions the DT more explicitly than any other of his non-DT series books. It provides a bit of back story not included anywhere else.
One of the other reviewers noted the somewhat poor quality of the production. I agree; it's not good. I believe that it is an old recording (probably from the mid-90s) that Audible has just acquired a license for. The occasional music is a bit annoying and is definitely too loud but it doesn't overly detract from the book. In fact, I had more of a problem with the narrator for the first 1/3 of the book; I found him hard to follow. However, he grew on me, and I quite liked him by the end.
So, if you're looking for a more contemplative Stephen King book, this one is for you.

With that being said, I am a huge Stephen King fan and just now listening to Insomnia for the first time. Just like a lot of his other works, it takes a minute to really pick up and wasn't what I expected it to be. I thought the story itself was okay, but I definitely don't think it is his best work. I have the Dark Tower series on my list to listen to next and this seems to be the prequel of that story. I think that this book is definitely worth a read (not a listen) at least once, but I think once is enough. I don't see myself revisiting this one.

Music Ruins The Story
Se ha producido un error. Vuelve a intentarlo dentro de unos minutos.
From the deafening guitar solo bridges to what sounded like ball bearings rhythmically being clacked together. The audio at the start and end of every chapter have to be some of the worst choices I've ever heard for an audio book. It sounds like Stephen King came up with this during his drug and alcohol fueled years. This title needs a re-recording badly.
Audio at chapters end ruin listening experience.

The music in the audio book is horrible. It is very loud and occasionally obscures the spoken words. This story is highly enjoyable but the jarring music takes away from the richness of the storytelling.
Well woven story
