A Stir of Echoes

By: Richard Matheson

Narrated by: Scott Brick

Tom Wallace lived an ordinary life, until a chance event awakened psychic abilities he never knew he possessed. Now, he's hearing the private thoughts of the people around him - and learning shocking secrets he never wanted to know. But as Tom's existence becomes a waking nightmare, even greater jolts are in store, as he becomes the unwilling recipient of a compelling message from beyond the grave.

This eerie ghost story, by the award-winning author of Hell House and I Am Legend, inspired the acclaimed 1999 film starring Kevin Bacon.

best Matheson book I've read yet

I've read three of Richard Matheson's books so far and this is my favorite. It might be personal preference but I like the mix of 50s Suburban Noir with ghost stories and Victorian Sensational mysticism.

worth listening to

I liked the story line and performance. it's only my own personal taste that I rate it only a 4.

Loved it.

Very great story and keeps you sucked in the story the entire time.thanks for the story!

not bad.

it's pretty good, I think that this book reads like it is written for women, very emotion heavy but I think anyone could enjoy it.

Five Stars!

Classic Five stars everyone did a great job! I suggest everyone to listen to this title if you enjoy this genre. You can tell how Matheson influenced King. Beautiful
