Fantastic Narration from Stephen King
- By Michael Kolasa on 2018-10-13
Written by: Stephen King
Publisher's Summary
The unpause-able novel of one man's quest to find the source of his nightmare and to reverse it before he becomes...nothing at all. This number-one national best seller from Stephen King, writing as Richard Bachman, "pulsates with evil...it will have you on the edge of your seat" (Publishers Weekly).
Billy Halleck commits vehicular manslaughter when his lack of attention results in the death of an old gypsy lady on the street. Overweight Halleck is a lawyer with connections, though, and he gets off with a slap on the wrist. After the trial, the victim's ancient father curses him with a single word: "thinner". Shedding weight by the week, Halleck is desperate enough for one last gamble...one that will lead him to a nightmare showdown with the forces of evil melting his flesh away.
With an introduction by Stephen King on "The Importance of Being Bachman", Thinner is a novel of "undeniable suspense" (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution) and "genuine chills" (Kirkus Reviews).

Good story
It's got action , mystery and betrayal. You get to see the evolution of the main character change over the course of the story from a town lawyer in to something else completely.

I was certainly lured in more and more throughout
Joe Mantegna made this book come to life for me. I don’t know that it would’ve been as good if he wasn’t narrating. The book gave me the creeps, and I enjoyed the suspense. It wasn’t the best book I ever read, but I definitely feel that it was worth my time.

Annoying music.
Great story, told well. Only downfall is the loud, erratic almost violent music in between chapters. louder than the reading, would have to remove my ear bud.

Some people don't like the music, but it reminds me of the casset tape audio books we used to listen to as kids in school. Also a great story; I enjoyed it from start to finish.

Music is awful
The story itself it amazing. The weird “music” throughout the entire book ruined it for me. Hopefully Audiobooks will stop putting music and other various series sounds into their books because it is supper annoying. The accents were pretty bad as well.
