Rezensionen

One of the great storytellers of our time Guardian

Praise for You Like It Darker

"A master class in tension and is full of King's dark humor. He knows what we like, and he delivers. This collection proves King is still king." -The New York Times Book Review

"Stephen King knows You Like It Darker and obliges with sensational new tales... thoughtful... intriguing... surprisingly emotional... the author has a long history of exceptional short fiction... He proves once more that his smaller-sized tales pack as powerful a wallop as the big boys." -USA Today

"What's obvious is that King's skills as a storyteller remain undimmed, and following him into the dark, the light or anywhere in between is never a bad bet. As if anyone could

resist." -Minneapolis Star-Tribune

"The best of these stories, as is true with the best of King's work, feature horror tempered with heart." -Associated Press

"Stephen King is still writing with the giddy abandon of scribes half his age, and more than anything else, You Like It Darker is evidence of that joy." -Paste

"King does it again in this collection of stories... there's no doubt that King is still a master." -AARP

"The bite-sized tales are perfect beach reads." -Variety

"King proves he's still a master of short fiction in his sterling seventh collection... This remarkably assured collection will thrill the author's fans." -Publishers Weekly

"Readers will be thrilled by these tales. They all have that King touch." -Library Journal, STARRED review

"A dozen tales from the master will draw you in-page by page, horror by horror-and hold you fast." -Kirkus, STARRED review
