Vier nach Mitternacht: Langoliers und Nachts
by Stephen King
OT: Four Past Midnight
Stephen King is a special guy. When a publisher asks an author to hand in a collection of stories, you’d usually end up with 15-20 stories and a 300–500-page book. Not with Mr. King, though. This is a collection of four stories that weighs in at 1,154 pages (in the German translation). And still, when I rated these separately not one, but two of my friends told me that the respective story was amongst their favorite SK short stories. Ha ha! Yeah, he is special.
I’m glad to report that three of the four stories were totally worth my time. Even The Langoliers, which I had read already (and didn’t like the first time around), was pretty entertaining. And while the book ended on a low for me, overall this was very enjoyable.
