Editorial Review: Product Description: Who but Stephen King would turn a Port-O-San into a slimy birth canal, or a roadside honky-tonk into a place for endless love? A book salesman with a grievance might pick up a mute hitchhiker, not knowing the silent man in the passenger seat listens altogether too well. Or an exercise routine on a stationary bicycle, begun to reduce bad cholesterol, might take its rider on a captivating -- and then terrifying-journey. Set on a remote key in Florida, "The Gingerbread Girl" is a riveting tale featuring a young woman as vulnerable -- and resourceful -- as Audrey Hepburn's character in Wait Until Dark. In "Ayana", a blind girl works a miracle with a kiss and the touch of her hand. For King, the line between the living and the dead is often blurry, and the seams that hold our reality intact might tear apart at any moment. In "N", which recently broke new ground when it was adapted as a graphic digital entertainment, a psychiatric patient's irrational thinking might create an apocalyptic threat in the Maine countryside - or keep the world from falling victim to it. Just After Sunset -- call it dusk, call it twilight, it's a time when human intercourse takes on an unnatural cast, when nothing is quite as it appears, when the imagination begins to reach for shadows as they dissipate to darkness and living daylight can be scared right out of you. It's the perfect time for Stephen King. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Good But Not GreatThis book is a collection of short stories by the "Master of Short Stories." Most of these are very good and I wished they were longer. I found only a couple that I didn't get into; hence 4 instead of 5 stars. Must read for all King fans! Rating:  - Stephen Kings "After Sunset"Excellent book of short stories. King at his best, and the hits just keep on coming. Rating: - bookThis was a gift. He really seemed to like it especially since it is short stories and can read each one at his leisure. Rating: - Just After Sunset is right for Just About AnytimeSimply Outstanding! I would say that is my opinion of Mr. Kings newest collection of stories. I could not put this collection down. If you have enjoyed his other short story collections this effort will not let you down AT ALL. Some of my favs were: Willa (A look at what might happen after we die) Stationary Bike (A definate thrill ride for acid takers and non acid takers alike) Graduation Afternoon (My favorite of all is a small glimpse at the moment a nuclear ...

As in his other recent work, King has shifted away from the flashy, ghoul-filled stuff to the inner horrors of personality, mental state and an unstable society. Sure, there are the elements of fantasy, but a lot of this stuff is scary because it could be true and could happen to you. There are 13 stories, ranging from the abduction of an obsessed runner (The Gingerbread Girl), ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
