Stephen King's first full-length solo novel since Dreamcatcher, the long-awaited From a Buick 8 is "nearly flawless and one terrific entertainment," says Publishers Weekly. A strange car acts as a conduit between our world and some other...and the boogeyman of this creepy story is our collective fascination with deadly things.

Story4 out of 5 stars 5,110
The cause of the devastation is a phenomenon that will come to be known as The Pulse, and the delivery method is a cell phone. Everyone's cell phone. Clay and the few desperate survivors who join him suddenly find themselves in the pitch-black night of civilization's darkest age, surrounded by chaos, carnage, and a human horde that has been reduced to its basest nature...and then begins to evolve.

This was one of Stephen King's best books....very entertaining, especially if you love end-of-the-world stories. Just FYI....this has no similarity to zombie books or zombie pop-culture. A couple reviews claimed this was Stephen King's take on Zombies. It has nothing to do with that genre. All in all, I highly recommend this audiobook.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 8,452
The Zombie War came unthinkably close to eradicating humanity. Max Brooks, driven by the urgency of preserving the acid-etched first-hand experiences of the survivors from those apocalyptic years, traveled across the United States of America and throughout the world, from decimated cities that once teemed with upwards of 30 million souls, to the most remote and inhospitable areas of the planet.

I read the paperback version and loved it. When I joined Audible, I just had to download the audio version. This was one of the most entertaining books in recent memory. I highly recommend it, even if you are not a zombie fan. No need to be with this book.
However, I really wish there was an unabridged version because there were so many characters from the novel that didn't make it into the audio version that really delivered 10x the amount of emotion.
