The Body is simply one of the best stories I have ever read. I still have a horrifying vision of an oven, because of this novella. Apt Pupil may not be pure horror, but it is absolutely horrific. ![]() Watching the characters devolve in my mind’s eye was unforgettable. King had me squirming as soon as the truth was revealed of the mysterious old recluse. However, Apt Pupil and The Body stand out to me as the anchors for this collection.Īpt Pupil is one of the most disturbing stories I have read. I cannot say enough good things about Different Seasons, arguably some of King’s best work.Īll four novellas are terrific and engaging. If you are in a similar mode currently, I recommend reading (or revisiting) Stephen King’s Different Seasons. Sometimes it is nice to speed through a series of short stories or novellas. As much as I love to read, sometimes I don’t want to commit myself to 1,000 pages and 300,000 words. ![]()
