Cell by Stephen King (2006, Unabridged, Compact Disc)

Awesome...a GREAT "what if"...and it make you think about the modern world of work and technology and how it relates to our lives...a great read. I guess if you really put yourself into that situation, you think about what it is that you would do....if you were there? King is killer at really describing life and a real persons reactions to bizzar situations...this is one of his best.

We love Stephen King, and we really liked Cell. We buy lots of books on cd's and this was a excellent choice. I would highly recommend this book if you are a fan of Stephen King. You will LOVE it.

The Cell was a very good King book. We are still listening to it at work. It reminded me alot of "28 Days Later" (the movie) but with a different twist. As far as King's wierdness that we all enjoy and look foreward to, it fell a small bit short. Maybe it wasn't bizarre enough for me. Don't get me wrong, I liked it alot and so do my friends, it's just that maybe there wasn't enough, well, "whoa"'s in it. Common Stephen, are you getting too old to shock us? I may be under-rating it a bit and maybe it deserves a 4 1/2. Oh by the way, I buy King because he's...........King.

I really enjoyed this audiobook. Many surprising twists and turns. Very entertaining. I commute over half hour to work each way and audiobooks help pass the time.

This book has all the classic Stephen King eccentricities, which is what I love about his books. I always find myself wondering how in the hell he comes up with the stuff he does. As always, he keeps you on the edge of your seat wondering what is going to happen next and it's usually not what you expect it's going to be. I have a 40 minute commute to and from work so audio books are great for passing the time.

I loved this book, and the vision of all those who use their cell phones becoming "phone crazies". It made me feel better about all the times someones phone has gone off in the cinema or when people continue to talk on their cell phones as they are being served in stores or the bank. Just reward!

I love Audio Books and Stephen King is awesome. I have had great experiences with Ebay and Audio Books.I have purchased tons of them over the past years. I can always count on getting a better price then buying directly from the stores.

I think this is one of the better books by Stephen King. It gives you a lot to think about when the world you know, the people you love, suddenly and drastically change. How would YOU react to a world where you are not the predominant life form?

This was a book that I didn't want to put down. Grabbed ahold of my from the first page & didn't let go even at the end. Stephen King does it once again. Makes you wonder of we really should be using these cell phones or not. I haven't looked at mine the same since. Worth the read!

I loved this book. It kept me on the edge of my seat and I couldn't stop listening. The end had me hanging, though. Stephen, tell me more!!!!!

It took me a week to not feel jumpy about my cell phone! I usually don't like to listen to Stephen King books, because they tend to drag a little. This one was so easy to listen to.

it wa a good quality audio book. the story is something only stephen king could mastermind. the delivery was quick and arrived in excellent condition.

I loved this book. It was a quick and easy read. Mr. King never seems to let us down, always supplying us with the perfect amount of GORE!! This book was funny, quick-witted, TRAGIC. It was a great read, especially after a stressful day!! PULSING Cell Phones, Humans turning to Zombies, and the Good Guys killing the bad guys....that's what it's all about.

Anther great work from the Master . . . . and the narration is one of the best I've heard. This is one of those audio books that you find yourself sitting in the driveway once you get home saying "just one more chapter and I'll go in . . . "

The reason I bought this book? I love Stephen King, have gotten hooked on audio books and really do not enjoy trying to find a new station every 50 miles when I am traveling on business.

Big Stephen King fan here...enjoyed the majority of the book but the ending left a lot of things to ponder on. at times you might think your reading another Stand novel...who knows...maybe we are on some other level of the tower....

Twelve discs which my husband and I listened to on an extened road trip, great story; kept us riveted to the point where we couldn't wait to listen after each break from driving. Reader had a nice voice with good voice skills..

My first audiobook, my first Stephen King and WOW I was hooked right from the start to the very end.

I bought this Cd a couple of weeks ago. I drive for about an hour to work and in the evening about the same. The CD was great and it passed the time away by listening to it.
Thanks

This is my first try at an audio book, and so far so good. I imagine Stephen King reading the morning newspaper, and he probably came upon the news clip theory that perhaps cell phones can cause brain tumors and expanded upon that in his own unique/morbid way. Perhaps "tumor" is a replacement word for "work" or "difficult client"... I'm not sure :) LOL (kidding), I have actually just started listening to it.

my husband likes any thing by stephen king that is on cds or tapes. he enjoys the books alot an will by from ebay agian.

I bought this cd set as a gift for my husband. He was happy to be able to add this set to his King collection of work. He has been a huge fan of Mr. King's work for many years, long before it was popular! In the very early days they used snail mail to write to each other. My husband has read (& listened) to everything both Kings have wrote. He enjoys revisiting these books on cd, over and over, when he travels. My husband loved "Cell"! Yet he did said, "This one is a little slow going in the beging. Stick with it though, because it is well worth your time!"
Enjoy folks!! I know my husband did and will again.

Cell is a great title - it is accurate for the story in more than the obvious reason. Intense as War of the Worlds, full of heart and characters like you'd expect from King... what an amazing idea, incredibly brought to life... WHAT A GREAT MOVIE THIS WILL MAKE! WOW-- all the edge of your seat you can want! With that classic, "think about it" from the Master.

I have to say the Steven does it again in a mind blowing thiller of how the world could come to an end over good and evil. A good listen (read) that moves nicely and never really lets you down. Highly recommended and liked.

Thanks Steven

I had to at least here what the latest Stephen King story was about. I listened to this on my daily 1/2 hour ride to work. I actually wanted the ride to last longer then the 1/2 hour so I could see what happened next. In the end I felt it was a great story, read professionally and with feeling. The only thing I felt was cheezy was the typical Steven King characters and some of their sayings and names of certain things as the story goes along, one of them "Mr. Speedy" as a nickname for a machine gun and many others. Overall this was very enjoyable and I'm glad I did the audio book version instead of actually reading the book.
