  NIGHTMARES & DREAMSCAPES BY STEPHEN KING (1993)
Review created: 08/07/08(updated 08/07/08)

A SOLITARY FINGER POKES OUT OF A DRAIN. NOVELTY TEETH TURN PREDATORY. FLIES SETTLE AND DIE IN AN OLD PAIR OF SNEAKERS IN NEW YORK, AND THE NEVADA DESERT SWALLOWS A CADILLAC. MEANWHILE, THE LEGEND OF CASTLE ROCK RETURNS... AND GROWS ON YOU. WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN? WHAT ELSE COULD IT MEAN? FIRST THERE WAS NIGHT SHIFT (1978), THEN SKELETON CREW (1985), AND NOW STEPHEN KING IS BACK WITH A THIRD COLLECTION OF STORIES-A VAST, MANY-CHAMBERED CAVE OF A VOLUME,WITH PASSAGES LEADING EVERY WHICH WAY TO HELL... AND A FEW TO GLORY. THE LONG REACH OF STEPHEN KING'S IMAGINATION AND THE NO-HOLDS-BARRED FORCE OF HIS STORYTELLING HAVE NEVER BEEN SO RICHLY DEMONSTRATED. THERE'S SOMETHING HERE FOR READERS OF EVERY STRIPE AND PREDILECTION-CLASSIC TALES OF THE MACABRE AND THE MONSTROUS, CUTTING-EDGE EXPLORATIONS OF THE BORDERLANDS BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL,BRILLIANT PASTICHES OF CHANDLER AND CONAN DOYLE,EVEN A TELEPLAY AND NON-FICTION BONUS, A HEARTFELT PIECE ON LITTLE LEAGUE BASEBALL THAT FIRST APPEARED IN THE NEW YORKER. IN STORY AFTER STORY, SEVERAL PUBLISHED HERE FOR THE FIRST TIME,HE WILL TAKE YOU TO PLACES YOU'VE NEVER BEEN BEFORE, PLACES THAT ARE BOTH DARK AND VIVIDLY ILLUMINATED. FAIR WARNING: YOU WILL LOSE A GOOD DEAL OF SLEEP. BUT STEPHEN KING, WRITING TO BEAT THE DEVIL,WILL DO YOUR DREAMING FOR YOU.

Seems I've become an avid book collector of late. I will eventually have all of Stephen Kings' books. I really enjoy reading his work, so I am having a glorious time with what I have so far. It's amazing the places you can travel to with the help of a book, and the people you chance to meet. Right now, I'm on a deserted island.....the wonder of it all..............

Stephen King is 2nd on my list of all time greatest authors ( First is Dean Koontz ), I just wish he could write a book a week, Then I wouldnt have to keep waiting for the next one to come out. Im not going to go into details about the book as if you are like me, I prefer to not know anything untill I start reading about it in the book, I have read most of his books so far and I love them all.
So as you can probably guess from what I wrote above, I highly Recomend this book.
