Different Seasons Audiobook Free Download (4 novellas – read by Frank Muller)
Different Seasons Audiobook is a collection of four Stephen King novellas with a more serious dramatic bent than the horror fiction for which King is famous. The four novellas are tied together via subtitles that relate to each of the four seasons.
“To find the secret of his success, you have to compare King to Twain and Poe – King’s stories tap the roots of myth buried in all our minds.” ( Los Angeles Times)
The audio collection is notable for having had three of its four novellas turned into Hollywood films, one of which, The Shawshank Redemption, was nominated for the 1994 Academy Award for Best Picture.

Review
Just finished the Audible version of Stephen King’s “Different Seasons Audiobook Mp3”. A story for each season. All I can say is Awesome! & I was sorry when the stories ended. What an imagination & creativity this author has!
Everyone has probably seen the movie adaptation or read the book by now and knows the story about the wrongful imprisonment of banker Andy Dufresne, the horror of “the sisters” and his best friend at Shawshank Red, but if you haven’t, you are so fortunate to have this amazing read ahead of you.
The audiobook provides a bit more detail here and there about Red and Andy, is just as enthralling as the movie and unputdownable.
Thoroughly enjoyed & the narration was just right. I would highly recommend.
