"A book salesman with a grievance picks up a mute hitchhiker, not knowing the silent man in the passenger seat listens altogether too well. An exercise routine on a stationary bicycle takes its rider on a captivating--and then terrifying--journey. A blind girl works a miracle with a kiss and the touch of her hand. A psychiatric patient's irrational thinking might create an apocalyptic threat in the Maine countryside...or keep the world from falling victim to it. These are just some of the tales to be found in the #1 bestselling collection Just After Sunset. Call it dusk or call it twilight, it's a time when human intercourse takes on an unnatural cast, when the imagination begins to reach for shadows as they dissipate to darkness and living daylight can be scared right out of you. It's the perfect time for master storyteller Stephen King."--Amazon.

Definitely not my favorite Stephen King book. I only liked the first story "Willa". The rest was very bland at best. Sorry Mr. King.

Couldn't put it down
Stephen King is such a good writer, in my opinion, that he has spoiled me for other writers. I thoroughly enjoyed this collection of short stories and didn't want it to end. I also appreciate that he follows up at the end with a bit of info about writing each of the stories. Thanks.

Just After Sunset: Short Stories
With the exception of ?From A Buick 8?, this is the worst Stephen King book I?ve ever read. There is literally only one short story that is of any good, ?N.? And ?A Very Tight Place? was out right gross and disgusting! ?Mute? was just okay. The rest are not worth reading. This book failed to live up to the expectations that I have from Stephen King. Or, is he loosing his touch?

Interesting Shorts
Stephen King just gets better & better.
His writing is showing a depth and matureness that suits him.
This book was perfect for summer reading.
