Default New Stephen King book

Not sure if there are any Stephen King fans out there, but he has a new book "Just After Sunset". It is a collection of short stories, his first since Everything's Eventual.

I bought the collector's set book which also came with a DVD where Stephen King introduces the original video series in 25 parts for one of the stories ("N") in the book. I am so happy to add this to my collection. Now I can't wait to read the book and see the DVD!

I like him but once the books are made into movies is what I'll watch. The collection book though sounds like something nice to give to a fan of his.

The last one I read awhile back was Dreamcatcher. Short stories might be more manageable, but I just don't know, lol.

He's an aquired taste. LOL. I love his earlier works and some of his newer books are so long they get confusing to me! So that is what makes the short stories nicer. I am the opposite of you befuddled2. I would prefer to read the book than watch the movie. Unless he wrote the screen play. Then I'll watch the movie!

I'm a big fan of Stephen King's older books. I haven't cared for any of his newer books that I tried to read. So, I re-read his old ones.

Just After Sunset sounds interesting, though.

I finished this latest collection of short stories. Very much like his older work and very enjoyable. The bonus collection DVD is awesome. Go to "Nishere.com". Stephen King talks about his new book, the story "N." and you can see episodes of the DVD "N."
