Review
It’s great to hear King himself narrate his own books, and he always does a great job. However, I really just didn’t care for this book at all. Kind of a run of the mill ghost story. Not what I expect out of King, but if you enjoy ghost stories you’ll probably like this one.
Like his novel Pet Sematary, Bag of Bones Audiobook Mp3 has the main theme of overwhelming grief, as the main character tries to move on from the death of a loved one, finding it impossible. Sometimes it’s the simplest things that can be the most complex, as King’s novel proves. He also creates a vivid setting and very realistic characters.
