À propos de cet audio

 #1 New York Times bestselling author and master storyteller Stephen King’s classic tale of an evil car that brings hellish terror to its new owner.

It’s love at first sight for high school student Arnie Cunningham when he and his best friend Dennis Guilder spot the dilapidated 1958 red-and-white Plymouth Fury for sale—dubbed “Christine” by its original cantankerous owner—rusting away on a front lawn of their suburban Pennsylvania neighborhood. Dennis knows that Arnie’s never had much luck in the popularity department, or really taken an interest in owning a car…but Christine quickly changes all that.

Arnie suddenly has the newfound confidence to stick up for himself, going as far as dating the most beautiful girl at Libertyville High—transfer student Leigh Cabot—even as a mysteriously restored Christine systematically and terrifyingly consumes every aspect of Arnie’s life. Dennis and Leigh soon realize that they must uncover the awful truth behind a car with a horrifying and murderous history. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, and heaven help anyone who gets in Christine’s way… Fiction de genre Fiction littéraire Horreur Surnaturels Suspense Thrillers et romans à suspense Effrayant Rage Fiction Fantôme Hanté

I've loved Stephen King's "Christine" for years. I loved the book, liked the movie as it followed the book fairly closely, so I thought I would buy the audio book.
I'm only part way through the story and I find that the narration is weak, to say the least. It's unfortunate as I really wanted to like this audio book, but I find that the narrative fails to bring across the darkness of the tale; the narrator simply does not bring the story to life, in my opinion.

Love The Story, Not Crazy About The Narration

I, unlike most I am sure, actually watched the movie adaptation a while ago before getting the audio book... And I am actually crazy glad I did!

In the movie adaptation of 1983, just taking a minute to forget the differences between movies and books (as always), the actors were quite well picked and I actually enjoyed the movie story.

Now, circling back to the audio book, I personally think Holter Graham could not have narrated the book better! The voice impressions, tones of voices and dialogues Holter performed in the audio was so so close and reminiscent of the movie it gave me goosebumps. A massive shoutout to Holter in this respect. Every time Holter did Arnie, or Dennis or Lebay, I could actually see the characters in the movie in my minds eye and this was 19 hours of pure enjoyment.

With Holter at the wheel you then get to enjoy the entire book and it had filled out the movie and the book so well in my head, I cannot even believe it.

I know this is more of a Holter shoutout that it is a King book review, but damn it worked well. Awesome hours spent for days listening to it.

My recommendation... watch the '83 movie adaptation, get the overall character experiences in your minds eye, their voices and mannerisms, then listen to this audiobook to get the full story.

I commomend this 5/5. LOVED IT!

What a book!!! What a story!!!

The story is typical Stephen King. Captures you by the throat, hits you in the gut, occasionally elicits tears. The reading is beautifully done. The only thing that spoils the audio is some technical problem that causes static crackling that has nothing whatsoever to do with the story.

Another great read! Stephen King is an author I’ve heard plenty about but I’d never read a novel by him. So, “Christine” was my introduction. While the book itself was intriguingly cryptic, I felt the book itself ran on a little longer than necessary. The storyline itself - Chef’s Kiss 😚🤌🏼 I liked the framing and narration style too - Just a wee bit drawn out.. Nonetheless, I would recommend “Christine” to any horror obsessed readers!
