Nobody writes a short story like King! Some of these came back to me as I listened to them — Quitters Inc., The Bogeyman, The Ledge — in a great, spooky way. The Mangler freaked me out, just as it did decades ago. The only one I didn’t enjoy on any level was The Lawnmower Man, which repulsed me beyond my comfort level for some reason. Overall, though, Night Shift is well worth a revisit.
Worst part of this was the combo of narrator John Glover — over-dramatizing to the extreme — and the annoyingly loud and dramatic music. Although the book was published in the mid-‘70s, the audiobook was recorded in the mid-‘90s, so maybe that was the standard then. Very distracting, though. SK does NOT need drama added to his words!
