A great little gruesome story from King, I just wished it was longer.

Not the best of Stephen King, but a fun little story.

La última vez que Jimmy Golding había creído en coches-monstruo fue cuando vio la película "Christine", de niño, pero sí creía que a veces los monstruos podían estar al acecho dentro de un coche. Y dentro de aquel había alguien. ¿Cómo se había abierto la puerta, si no?
Mi cuarto libro de este autor y quede maravillada, fue una lectura ágil y eso es lo que más me gusta de un libro ,no lo digo por su cantidad de páginas ,sino su forma de contar los hechos sin la necesidad de meter tanto relleno, llevándolo a ser aburrido y muy lento.
Cuando metes niños a un libro como este, en mi crece más la angustia.
King no discrimina a nadie, a la hora de matar, puede ser un niño,un animal, hombre o mujer.
Así que debo para futuras lecturas , poner mi corazón aun lado.

An interesting little story with some creepy elements, which make you think about Christine or From a Buick 8. I think this story was the point of start for those 2 well-known novellas.

I really enjoyed this book and read it in one sitting, I was really into it and was fearing for the characters.
I was anxious reading it, but it was a good kind of anxious.
The ending is definitely not the best part of the book but I liked everything else.
Surprisingly enough none of the children died which is pretty unusual for a King's book
I felt a bit angered everytime a character jumped right into the danger, more even when they were warned about it.
I felt really sad when the children lost their parents and wanted to hug and comfort them.

Nagyon jó kis rövid történet, pont Halloween-kor olvastam és erre volt szükségem. Egy fél nap alatt kivégezhető, de nagyon izgalmas, jó az ötlet, és a karakterek is tetszett. Igazi King, jó kis előétel volt az új regényéhez a 11/22/63 címűhöz.

Simple ending for a simple book. Very broad strokes are used to paint this canvas, but the picture is still quaint. Written in a way that screams "This Is Only A Short Story!" it does a good job within its own field.

A carnivorous alien car that eats anyone who gets too close. There are children who see it for what it is because their young minds are not closed to a supernatural fantasy.
Dune is a small island that foretells the death of people.
