Desperation

De: Stephen King

Narrado por: Stephen King

Stephen King’s #1 national bestseller about a little mining town, Desperation, that many will enter on their way to somewhere else. But getting out is not easy as it would seem…

"I see holes like eyes. My mind is full of them."

For all intents and purposes, police officer Collie Entragian, chief law enforcement for the small mining town of Desperation, Nevada, appears to be completely insane. He's taken to stopping vehicles along the desolate Interstate 50 and abducting unwary travelers with various unusual ploys. There's something very wrong here in Desperation...and Officer Entragian is only at the surface of it. The secrets embedded in Desperation's landscape, and the horrifying evil that infects the town like some viral hot zone, are both awesome and terrifying. But one of Entragian's victims, young David Carver, seems to know—and it scares him nearly to death to realize this truth—that the forces being summoned to combat this frightful, maniacal aberration are of equal and opposite intensity...

Outstanding!

I can clearly see this book made into a movie. It kept my attention through the end, and I was disappointed when it was over. I felt I could easily connect with the characters, and often felt I was accompanying them on their horrible journey. Great book!!

Although the author was also the narrator of the book, and I tend to like him, it would make the book even more gripping to have a narrator who will include the dramatic emphases into his or her dialogue.

Desperation

As much as I worship Mr. King he is a horrible narrator, emotionless and monotonous. Perfect for before bed reading to put anyone to sleep. Dear generous Mr. Overall book was ok, not his best.

great book

great book. king as a narrator is brilliant and his story is creepy as hell.

not his best, not his worst. seemed to drag

Not his best, not his worst, seemed to drag. Will probably not re-read. I recommend another of Stephen Kings work.

I love when the author reads their book!

Great story and read very well by Stephen King himself. I look forward to my next audible King book!
