Description

This is the way the world ends: with a nanosecond of computer error in a Defense Department laboratory and a million casual contacts that form the links in a chain letter of death.

And here is the bleak new world of the day after: a world stripped of its institutions and emptied of 99 percent of its people. A world in which a handful of panicky survivors choose sides - or are chosen. A world in which good rides on the frail shoulders of the 108-year-old Mother Abagail - and the worst nightmares of evil are embodied in a man with a lethal smile and unspeakable powers: Randall Flagg, the dark man.

In 1978, Stephen King published The Stand, the novel that is now considered to be one of his finest works. But as it was first published, The Stand was incomplete, since more than 150,000 words had been cut from the original manuscript.

Now Stephen King's apocalyptic vision of a world blasted by plague and embroiled in an elemental struggle between good and evil has been restored to its entirety. The Stand: The Complete and Uncut Edition includes material previously deleted, along with new material that King added as he reworked the manuscript for a new generation. It gives us new characters and endows familiar ones with new depths. It has a new beginning and a new ending. What emerges is a gripping work with the scope and moral complexity of a true epic.

For hundreds of thousands of fans who heard The Stand in its original version and wanted more, this new edition is Stephen King's gift. And those who are listening to The Stand for the first time will discover a triumphant and eerily plausible work of the imagination that takes on the issues that will determine our survival.

Great book! But a bit long and a weak second act

Fantastic book from the master of horror, Grover did an amazing job in narrating and really gave life to these characters. Only real issue with the book is it drags on a but too long in the second act and kind if has an abrupt conclusion when it comes to the big fight between the freezone and darkman. Other then that it is one of Stephen Kings better stories.

Fantastic

I finished this a few months ago and I'm still thinking about it. This book reminds me of a American Lord of the Rings. This book has everything. Narration was very good as well but I'd argue that with how good the story was the narrator is less important. Give it a listen.

This is a great study on what life could be like

I have enjoyed this audiobook twice now and I am sure I will do it again and again. it is disturbing picture of what could happen if someone "drops the ball" Great charactors representing good and evil. What would we do if the etch-o-sketch that is this life was given a shake. What would the new picture look like?
