2010 Audie Award Finalist for Short Stories/Collections

Thirteen “dazzling” (Associated Press) and “wonderfully wicked” (USA TODAY) stories from #1 New York Times bestselling author Stephen King.

A book salesman with a grievance picks up a mute hitchhiker, not knowing the silent man in the passenger seat listens altogether too well. An exercise routine on a stationary bicycle takes its rider on a captivating—and then terrifying—journey. A blind girl works a miracle with a kiss and the touch of her hand. A psychiatric patient’s irrational thinking might create an apocalyptic threat in the Maine countryside…or keep the world from falling victim to it.

These are just some of the tales to be found in the #1 bestselling collection Just After Sunset. Call it dusk or call it twilight, it’s a time when human intercourse takes on an unnatural cast, when the imagination begins to reach for shadows as they dissipate to darkness and living daylight can be scared right out of you. It’s the perfect time for master storyteller Stephen King.

Stories include:
-Willa
-The Gingerbread Girl
-Harvey's Dream
-Rest Stop
-Stationary Bike
-The Things They Left Behind
-Graduation Afternoon
-N.
-The Cat from Hell
-The New York Times at Special Bargain Rates
-Mute
-Ayana
-A Very Tight Place

I love Stephen King, but this was a turkey of a book. Me thinks that King is much better when it comes to novels than short stories. The stories were so forgettable, I have nothing more to add.

I have read many of Stephen King's books and have enjoyed them very much. However, this book is just an adaptation of a lot of short stories, most of which have been published before with only one or two exceptions that is to say new stories. The rest are just a bunch of short stories that have already been published and bunched together under the title of a new book I find that that is very, very unprofessional and shall review Mr. King's books more closely and find out what is in them before I spend my hard-earned money. Listening to books that I have are ready. Listen to.

It was a pretty good read. Not his best but not his worst.

Some of the stories were really good, others you will not be able to wait until the end. I just wish there were a few more settings. I am getting tired of Florida and Maine.

We were unable to enjoy the stories due to the nonstop skipping of the discs. However, the stories were true Stephen King all the way through. I will purchase the book and try again.
