When Dr. Louis Creed takes a new job and moves his family to the idyllic, rural town of Ludlow, Maine, this new beginning seems too good to be true. Yet despite Ludlow's tranquility, there's an undercurrent of danger that lingers...like the graveyard in the woods near the Creeds' home, where generations of children have buried their beloved pets.

Welcome to Derry, Maine. It’s a small city, a place as hauntingly familiar as your own hometown. Only in Derry the haunting is real. They were seven teenagers when they first stumbled upon the horror. Now they are grown-up men and women who have gone out into the big world to gain success and happiness. But the promise they made 28 years ago calls them reunite in the same place where, as teenagers, they battled an evil creature that preyed on the city’s children.

On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when - or if - it will go away.

Resumen del Editor
The number one New York Times best seller about a famous novelist held hostage in a remote location by his “number one fan.” One of “Stephen King’s best…genuinely scary” (USA Today).
Best-selling novelist Paul Sheldon thinks he’s finally free of Misery Chastain. In a controversial career move, he’s just killed off the popular protagonist of his beloved romance series in favor of expanding his creative horizons. But such a change doesn’t come without consequences. After a near-fatal car accident in rural Colorado leaves his body broken, Paul finds himself at the mercy of the terrifying rescuer who’s nursing him back to health - his self-proclaimed number one fan, Annie Wilkes.
Annie is very upset over what Paul did to Misery and demands that he find a way to bring her back by writing a new novel - his best yet, and one that’s all for her. After all, Paul has all the time in the world to do so as a prisoner in her isolated house...and Annie has some very persuasive and violent methods to get exactly what she wants...
“King at his best...a winner!” (The New York Times)
“Unadulteratedly terrifying...frightening.” (Publishers Weekly)
“Classic King...full of twists and turns and mounting suspense.” (The Boston Globe)

To everyone else it's Dragonscale, a highly contagious, deadly spore that marks its hosts with beautiful black and gold marks across their bodies - before causing them to burst into flames. Millions are infected; blazes erupt everywhere. There is no antidote. No one is safe.

Historia
The living dead are more alive than ever! Zombies have become more than an iconic monster for the 21st century: They are now a phenomenon constantly revealing as much about ourselves - and our fascination with death, resurrection, and survival - as our love for the supernatural or post-apocalyptic speculation. Our most imaginative literary minds have been devoured by these incredible creatures and produced exciting, insightful, and unflinching new works of zombie fiction.

Historia
Rabbit, Run is the book that established John Updike as one of the major American novelists of his - or any other - generation. Its hero is Harry “Rabbit” Angstrom, a onetime high-school basketball star who on an impulse deserts his wife and son. He is 26 years old, a man-child caught in a struggle between instinct and thought, self and society, sexual gratification and family duty - even, in a sense, human hard-heartedness, and divine Grace. Though his flight from home traces a zigzag of evasion, he holds to the faith that he is on the right path.

Historia
The profoundly original and wildly entertaining short stories of a legendary Twilight Zone writer. It is only natural that Charles Beaumont would make a name for himself crafting scripts for The Twilight Zone - for his was an imagination so limitless it must have emerged from some other dimension. Perchance to Dream contains a selection of Beaumont's finest stories, including five that he later adapted for Twilight Zone episodes.

The world as we know it is ending. Evolution has reversed itself, affecting every living creature on earth. Science cannot stop the world from running backward, as woman after woman gives birth to infants that appear to be primitive species of humans. Thirty-two-year-old Cedar Hawk Songmaker, adopted daughter of a pair of big-hearted, open-minded Minneapolis liberals, is as disturbed and uncertain as the rest of America around her. But for Cedar, this change is profound and deeply personal. She is four months pregnant.

Few authors write with such sheer love of story and language as T. C. Boyle, and that is nowhere more evident than in his inventive, wickedly funny, and always entertaining short stories. Here are 14 new tales previously unpublished in book form. By turns mythic and realistic, farcical and tragic, ironic and moving, Boyle's stories have mapped a wide range of human emotions. The stories here reflect his maturing themes.

this is king book #17 for me, all audio books, this one hit me like IT did the first time. it's brutal, and amazing, but mor3 importantly it gives a glimpse into the mind of King, I feel like this book is autobiographical as to how king used to use drugs to write stories. amazing read/listen.

King rocks the writing, Crouse rocks the speaking
forgot or never realized what an eloquent writer King is. Lindsay ROCKED the narration! I like that she doesn't put on a "man" voice for the male roles. only thing I didn't like was the music.

One of my favorite story from Stephen King
For the first time I love this story. I never put this down and kept on going to listening to this book. I never imagine the torture and cruel that Annie Wilkes gave to the Paul Sheldon. Glad that the end everything turn out ok for this beloved Author.

Good book. Wasn’t super impressed with the narrator
I liked this Stephen king book a lot. I really didn’t like the reading (narrator) though. I listened to ‘The Stand’ just before this one and I thought the guy who narrates that one was way better.

Full of terror, and of despair, but never dull
On the story:
King's ability to take the simplest of details and turn them into plot elements, or even final lines, is my favorite aspect of his writing, and this novel particularly. I had seen the movie prior to reading the book, but the book transported me away from my memories of the film and I am grateful upon completion. Annie is one demon of a goddess, and Paul, by the end, reaches a level of sainthood. I was horrified, often looking over my shoulder when I was alone because I thought of the events of the novel and Annie Wilkes, and I shuddered to think of such a reality.
On this production and Lindsay Crouse as narrator:
I read several reviews prior to listening, although I had already purchased the audiobook, and was disheartened to see several complaints about Crouse's narration. I heard what several reviewers spoke of, but at times, I felt her style of reading was necessary for a book so grinding and horrific. Her voice is level, calm, but with an airiness that makes the more sinister moments pass by with even more suspense. Altogether, I was impressed. The editing, including the addition of transition music, was spot on. When Annie's mood begins to decline and the situation and story darken, the music, in its moody tones, supplied a healthy backdrop of morbid beauty.
