Trucks that punish and beautiful teen demons who seduce a young man to massacre; curses whose malevolence grows through the years; obscene presences and angels of grace - here, indeed, is a night-blooming bouquet of chills and thrills.

Leland Gaunt opens a new shop in Castle Rock called Needful Things. Anyone who enters his store finds the object of his or her lifelong dreams and desires: a prized baseball card, a healing amulet. In addition to a token payment, Gaunt requests that each person perform a little "deed", usually a seemingly innocent prank played on someone else from town. These practical jokes cascade out of control, and soon the entire town is doing battle with itself. Only Sheriff Alan Pangborn suspects that Gaunt is behind the population's increasingly violent behavior.

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.

Fantastic!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would recommend this book to a friend, because the stories are great, and the reader is one of the best I have ever heard.
What did you like best about this story?
All of the novellas in the book are great, but the shawshank redemption is my favorite out of all of them.
What does Frank Muller bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Frank was fantastic at first person stories. He was also good at making you feel like you were really in the novel he was reading. That is why he was and audio award winner in my opinion.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The ending of apt pupil was very surprising to me.
Any additional comments?
I would recommend any book read by Frank Muller.

A Stephen King Classic! Must "read"
Just finished the Audible version of Stephen King's "Different Seasons". A story for each season. All I can say is Awesome! & I was sorry when the stories ended. What an imagination & creativity this author has! Thoroughly enjoyed & the narration was just right. I would highly recommend. Three of the stories were made into movies- Stand By Me, The Shawshank Redemption & Apt Pupil. Stephen King at his best in my humble opinion.
