À propos de cet audio
It is a typical October morning in Chester’s Mill, Maine: glorious weather, a perfectly blue sky, and quiet. Then, all hell breaks loose. Inexplicably, and simultaneously, a plane falls from the sky in flames; a woman’s hand is severed; and a farmer’s John Deere explores (with him on it). A few moments later, a pulp-truck crashes spectacularly. Somehow, an invisible and impermeable barrier—exactly following the town’s perimeter—has descended upon the town.
Life under the dome quickly becomes a hothouse—with the best in some people and the worst in others flourishing. There are unambiguous heroes and villains, from a supremely corrupt local politician to a very enterprising newspaper reporter. The situation under the dome deteriorates by the minute: supplies of everything are diminishing quickly, the citizens are panicking, and the police force, under the control of the diabolically devious alderman Jim Rennie, implement their own version of martial law. Meanwhile, Barbie, brave Iraq war vet and short order cook, and a band of intrepid pals engage in a race against time to find the source of the dome and raise it before there’s nobody left alive in Chester’s Mill.
Under the Dome is filled with a marvelous and enormous cast of over 100 characters. King’s trademark idiomatic language is pure pleasure to read. “Nowhere in Mr. King’s immense body of work have his real and fantasy world collided with such head-on force” (The New York Times Book Review).©2009 Stephen King; (P)2009 Simon & Schuster

Featured Article: Stephen King’s 32 Best Audiobooks: The Definitive List
Stephen King is one of the most prolific authors of all time. He has published 61 novels, more than 200 short stories, and six nonfiction books—and he shows no sign of stopping. With such an extensive portfolio, choosing one audiobook can be daunting. We’ve compiled a list of the 32 best Stephen King audiobooks to make the choice easier. Whether you’re looking to get stuck into one of his creepy, classic stories or a sci-fi novella, you’ll find a title on this list that will get your heart racing.
Under the Dome constitutes my first King audiobook, and I have to admit: it.took me an hour or so of listening to get into the groove of it. But... that's the thing about Stephen King - there's always a groove. A familiar, but always satisfying hook, kind of like the undertow of a seemingly placid river. One second, you're floating lazily in Derry, Castle Rock, or in this case, Chester's Mill, and the next, you're caught in the clutches of the story, a slave to the whims of King's unparalleled intuitive storytelling genius.
Under the Dome had me glued to my earphones, accidentally ignoring my dog's need for attention, and foregoing meals by accident. It was amazing. If you have the time and emotional.energy to set aside for it, then do it. You won't be disappointed!
Gore galore, but magical, as usual!

From King this is to be expected at this point so what I would like to highlight is the Narrator. I have no idea what book some of these other people were listening to when they said the narration was awful! It was done so well with each character having their own voice done, but not to the point where it was over the top. Well done!
Quality story AND Narration
