  PbigbFIRST TIME ON AUDIO...PAn Unabridged Novella Unavailable In Any Collection!/b/big P PTapping into our primal fears of modern technology that made ICell /ia #1 bestseller, Stephen King sets his sights on the latest high-tech gadget in IUR,/i in which a mysterious e-book reader opens a disturbing window into other worlds. P PReeling from a painful break-up, English instructor and avid book lover Wesley Smith is haunted by his ex-girlfriend's parting shot: "Why can't you just read off the computer like everyone else?" He buys an e-book reader out of spite, but soon finds he can use the device to glimpse realities he had never before imagined, discovering literary riches beyond his wildest dreams...and all-too-human tragedies that surpass his most terrible nightmares. P PFrom vintage cars (IChristine/i and IFrom a Buick 8/i) to household appliances (IMaximum Overdrive/i) to exercise equipment (IStationary Bike/i), Stephen King has mesmerized us with tales of apparently ordinary machines that take on lives of their own. IUR/i gives this classic theme an up-to-the-minute spin, resulting in a horror masterpiece for our time and for the ages.

Since his first novel was published in 1974, Stephen King has stretched the boundaries of the storyteller as a writer who constantly redefines his readers' experience by working in various genres and formats . Whether in an epic horror novel, like THE STAND, a serial-novel like THE GREEN MILE, or a novella like SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, King is able to deliver a reading experience like no one else can. As quickly as a spider spins its web, King reminds us why he's the master of the novella - a format which, up until now that is, one might have thought is fast disappearing.
