I enjoyed the short stories

Creepy short stories. Classic King. I am not baseball fan so the last story was beyond me.

Great!!!

Love this. I thought that all the readers were perfect for the story they read.

Great collection! Can't wait to start volume 2!

Great Stories! Different then most of his other short story books, but if you know Stephen King, you then know that he's not just the Master of Horror. He's also the Master of having no need for a comfort zone or M.O. To rely on. He writes incredibly, exploring different genres and states of mind. The short stories in this collection are no different.

The readers are all fantastic! Whoopi Goldberg was a delightful surprise in that I never expected her to be such an amazing story teller. Everyone else was amazing as well.

Now... On to Volume 2!

some were great

the last story in the anthology that Stephen King read. ugh I hated it. a baseball story that dragged on forever. I quit 30 minutes left.

There’s something for everyone.

Not all stories will appeal to everyone. I’ve just finished listening to Salem’s Lot and commented about how I disliked the music. Same applies here. Distracting and doesn’t bring anything to any of the stories. The recordings are starting to feel a little “dated”, compared to the quality we are used to nowadays. I skipped a couple of stories because the voice of the narrators was just painful to listen to.
