Review
In the beginning, I did not understand what was happening and the direction of the Firestarter Audiobook Mp3. Had to go back and listen again to the 1st chapter. Must confess I was hooked.
And then, I can find absolutely nothing bad to say about this audiobook. Firestarter is up there with ‘Salem’s Lot, The Shining Audiobook, and It Audiobook. This one isn’t as creep-up-on-you scary as the aforementioned novels, but Firestarter is terrifying. To image, a world wherein Charlie McGee exists is a scary thought indeed.
This is one of the few Stephen King audiobooks that have absolutely zero lulls in the narrative. When the pace does slow, King shows off his superhuman character development skills. He doesn’t simply make his character dev engaging, he makes it entertaining as well.
The narrator made the Firestarter Audiobook Download very believable and portrayed the characters well. Unpredictable and chilling. Addictive read. The writing style was excellent it did not come across as reading…..it was like watching a movie. You could see all in your imagination.
