Blaze by Stephen King (2007, Unabridged, Compact Disc)

This story is a partial rewrite of a previously unpublished novel written by King, as Richard Bachman in 1973. There is a small history of how this book made it to the shelves by King, as he addresses his Constant Reader in the preface. It is a about a huge, almost retarded criminal who kidnaps a baby and plans to ransom it back to the wealthy parents, but falls in love with the child instead. The story is basic early King, a good read and lightly connected to the Gunslinger series as most of his books are. At the back of the book is a short story that was published last year. King comments about how it became more and will be published as a novel early in 2008. A very quick read, if you love to read King, you have to get this one.
