ELEVATION (audiobook) by Stephen King

 















Published in 2018 by Simon and Schuster Audio.
Read by the author, Stephen King
Duration: 3 hours, 46 minutes.
Unabridged.


Stephen King has a long history of publishing collections of short stories. I am usually not a fan of short stories, but I have no problem with a Stephen King short story. I think King is so good at making characters that the reader can identify with in such a short amount of time.

This collection is pretty short - just two short stories. Both feature older men.

The author
In one, we have a man living in Maine with a supernatural problem and also a misunderstanding with his neighbors. This one really feels like two stories, but it was pretty touching.

In the second story, a desperately lonely widower living in the Florida Keys is brought a gift by his older sister to get him up and moving again - a puppy.

These are both good stories - very enjoyable and always with a twist. They were read by Stephen King. It was neither a good thing nor a bad thing - his accent was great with the characters in Maine, but he is a good reader, but not a great one. 

I rate this audiobook 4 stars out of 5. It can be found on Amazon.com here: ELEVATION (audiobook) by Stephen King.
