Publisher's Synopsis
"...this will be the biggest selling story collection of the year, and why not? No one does it better." - PUBLISHERS WEEKLY "This is a milestone in compilations of King's shorter works. Recommended for all popular fiction collections." - LIBRARY JOURNAL This is a collection of fourteen dark tales by Stephen King. Intense, eerie and instantly compelling, they include one O. Henry Prize-winner, two other award-winners, four stories published by THE NEW YORKER, and 'Riding The Bullet', King's original e-book that became the most famous short story of the decade. In 'Lunch at the Gotham Cafe', a sparring couple's contentious lunch turns very, very bloody. '1408' is about a sucessful writer whose specialty is 'Ten Nights in Ten Haunted Graveyards', or 'Ten Nights in Ten Haunted Houses', and though Room 1408 at the Dolphin Hotel doesn't kill him, he won't be writing about ghosts any more!
