Stephen King
A number-one national best seller
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. He begins to suspect that these visions are something more than hallucinations brought on by lack of sleep.
There's a definite mean streak running through this small New England city; underneath its ordinary surface awesome and terrifying forces are at work. The dying has been going on in Derry for a long, long time. Now Ralph is part of it...and lack of sleep is the least of his worries.
Returning to the same Maine town where It took place, a town that has haunted Stephen King for decades, Insomnia blends King's trademark bone-chilling realism with supernatural terror to create yet another masterpiece of suspense.

Horrible Music Throughout- Ruined the Story

Now the bad. I don't know who was responsible for the music between chapters but they should never be allowed to work in sound production again. I almost stoped listening 3-4 times just because of all the screeching in my ears. How anyone could think that added to the performance is beyond me. I had just listened to Hearts in Atlantis before this book. I thought the music was a nice addition in that case. It's not that I don't like loud guitars. I grew up on Maiden and Metallic. This is one case where I'd recommend skip the audio book and read this one the old fashion way just to save your ears from the abuse.
Worst production I've ever listened to.

The narrator is incredible and truly makes you feel each character.
My ONLY issue is the absolutely painful SFX. When they come on, they are twice as loud as the narration and make it almost impossible to make out what is being said. I listen to much of my books in the car and I have to cut the volume down to half and then cannot hear what is being said. It’s startling to say the least.
AMAZING book, TERRIBLE SFX
