Mile 81 freaked me out in a good way. Think Christine, From A Buick 8, and the Low Men mixed together is a scary soup. Excellent story to start this collection. Also included two poems. The other stories were all spooky, but not in the Mile 81 way. My favorites were Mile 81, The Dune, Bad Little Kid, Ur, Heman Wouk Is Still Alive (anyone who is a mom or has ever felt like giving up can relate to that one), Under The Weather, and Summer Thunder (shades of The Stand). I'll always read Stephen King because I love the scary.
