Story
Although Scott Carey doesn’t look any different, he’s been steadily losing weight. There are a couple of other odd things, too. He weighs the same in his clothes and out of them, no matter how heavy they are. Scott doesn’t want to be poked and prodded. He mostly just wants someone else to know, and he trusts Doctor Bob Ellis. In the small town of Castle Rock, the setting of many of King’s most iconic stories, Scott is engaged in a low-grade - but escalating - battle with the lesbians next door whose dog regularly drops his business on Scott’s lawn. One of the women is friendly; the other, cold as ice.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Story
Scotty and his friends Pete and Jason are among the last seven kids at their high school waiting to get picked up that day, and they soon realize that no one is coming for them. Still, it doesn't seem so bad to spend the night at school, especially when distractingly hot Krista and Julie are sleeping just down the hall. But then the power goes out, then the heat. The pipes freeze, and the roof shudders. As the days add up, the snow piles higher, and the empty halls grow colder and darker, the mounting pressure forces a devastating decision.

Story
For nearly two decades, Jamie Warren has been running from darkness. He's haunted by a traumatic childhood and the guilt at having disappeared from his disabled brother's life. But then a series of unusual events reunites him with his estranged brother and their childhood friends, and none of them can deny the sense of fate that has seemingly drawn them back together. Nor can they deny the memories of that summer, so long ago—the strange magic taught to them by an even stranger man, and the terrible act that has followed them all into adulthood.

The AI was (lol) Lifeless. Excellent Stories
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
It was so difficult to tell when characters changed, so some parts I had to listen to again because it didn’t make sense
AI also doesn’t have a grasp of inflection so this was a terrible book to sample AI with. I’m glad it was free but would probably pay for a version read by a narrator even a poor one would be hard pressed to be this bad.
Long review short good book poor narration.
AI not really about the story

The AI narrator leaves a lot to be desired, and almost calls me to not finish the stories. However, I am glad I did.
Great Fiction

Horrible narration

There were six short stories by King included in this collection and most of them didn’t seem like traditional King. Although I did enjoy some of them. I did get used to the virtual voice narrator after a while but it was difficult to know when the story shifted characters when the characters’ voices didn’t change. This set of stories felt like a group of experimental ideas that were pulled together (sitting in one of King’s draft folder) to create a book for the sake of publishing another book. I did enjoy it from the standpoint of understanding King’s range. You’ll enjoy these if you like shocking horror, science fiction, and are just interested in seeing a different King.
