A spine-tingling collection of stories from the No. 1 bestselling master of horror - now with a stunning new cover look.

Nothing is quite as it seems.

Expect the unexpected in this veritable treasure trove of enthralling, witty, dark tales that could only come from the imagination of the greatest storyteller of our time.

In this eerie, enchanting compilation, Stephen King takes readers down a road less travelled (for good reason) in the blockbuster e-book 'Riding the Bullet'. Terror becomes deja vu all over again when you get 'That Feeling, You Can Only Say What It Is in French'. 'LT's Theory of Pets' will make you stop and think before giving a dog to a loved one. And there are eleven more stories that will keep you awake until dawn.

Stories include:
-Autopsy Room Four
-The Man in the Black Suit
-All That You Love Will Be Carried Away
-The Death of Jack Hamilton
-In the Deathroom
-The Little Sisters of Eluria
-Everything's Eventual
-L. T.'s Theory of Pets
-The Road Virus Heads North
-Lunch at the Gotham Café
-That Feeling, You Can Only Say What It Is in French
-1408
-Riding the Bullet
-Luckey Quarter

Medlemsvurdering:
Stephen King just gets better and better. His fourteen short stories highlight his mastery of a difficult form of writing. I particularly liked his down home remarks at the beginning or end of each story explaining a little about how he happened to write it and what he was trying to achieve. King has the uncanny ability to talk directly to the reader, one-on-one as if you are the only person in the world.
Not one of the fourteen stories disappointed me; they were varied: humorous, reflective, and scary. This book will be fun to readers of all age groups. Read this 14 Dark Tales..

Ahmed – 20.07.2005

– The book Everythings eventual by Stephen King was a new york times #1 bestseller. If you like short stories then this is the book for you. If you like horror books then this is the book for you. The difficulty of the book is not to bad, and it is pritty lengthy. I recommend it to people who have never read a Stephen King book before because there are several short stories instead of one really long story. You would be able to have a better understanding of his stories. I would give Everythings Eventual a nine out of ten rating because it didnt make me bored with the same story. I recommend this book to any one that has an intrest with Stephen King books.
