Stephen King's fan-favourite thriller. Also available in audio for the first time, read by Academy Award nominee James Franco.
The two things that conjured up that horrible night, were his run of luck at the Wheel of Fortune, and the mask...
Meet Johnny Smith. A young man whose streak of luck ends dramatically in a major car crash. Followed by blackness. A long, long time in cold limbo.
When he wakes up life has been turned upside down. His fiancée has met someone else. And Johnny is cursed with the power to perceive evil in men's souls. He's had these hunches since he had an ice-skating accident as a child. Now he has an ability to see into the future. An ability which will bring him into a terrifying confrontation with a charismatic, power-hungry and dangerous man...

MY REVIEW
What I liked about this story... I just could not put this book down. The plot sucked me in right from the beginning when we meet Johnny and everything was going right, when he went on a date to the crash right the way through to the very last page. The suspense in this story, for me, was everything. I needed to know what was going to happen next and whether Johnny was going to get back the luck he had at the start. At 530 pages it was certainly a challenge but I managed to read this in 2 sittings over 2 days and that's an achievement for me!
What I didn't like about this story... Absolutely nothing. Loved this from the first page to the very last
Would I recommend... Yes 100% For those who are not so keen on the style of graphic horror you get with Misery, this is an ideal one to pick up. I would call this more of a triller, science fiction mystery rather than a horror to be honest.
