Publisher Description
Before Doctor Sleep, there was The Shining, a classic of modern American horror from the undisputed master, Stephen King.
Jack Torrance’s new job at the Overlook Hotel is the perfect chance for a fresh start. As the off-season caretaker at the atmospheric old hotel, he’ll have plenty of time to spend reconnecting with his family and working on his writing. But as the harsh winter weather sets in, the idyllic location feels ever more remote . . . and more sinister. And the only one to notice the strange and terrible forces gathering around the Overlook is Danny Torrance, a uniquely gifted five-year-old.
Customer Reviews
wow
amazing book, the narrator doesn’t do it justice though. I enjoyed it most when i was listening and reading along.
Ruined By Narrator
It sounds like the narrator is purposefully making mouth-sounds directly into my ear. He enunciates every t and d sound and his voice has this grating wetness. I like this book but I feel like I just wasted $20.
Much better than the movie
I couldn’t believe how different the book is from the movie. I hope they remake the movie one day with a focus on being as close to the original story as possible.
