Publisher's Summary
It's not just a game when you're running for your life.
Every night they tuned in to the nation's favourite prime-time TV game show. They all watched, from the sprawling slums to the security-obsessed enclaves of the rich. They all watched the ultimate live death game as the contestants tried to beat not the clock but annihilation at the hands of the Hunters.
Survive 30 days, and win the billion-dollar jackpot - that was the promise. But the odds were brutal and the game rigged. Best score so far was eight days. And now there was a new contestant, the latest running man, staking his life while a nation watched.

WARNING: THERE IS A SPOLIER RIGHT AT THE START.
Overall I liked the book but the Author's note at the start have away the ending. What the heck!? Just a warning to skip if you haven't read the book before.

Great thrilling book
Skip the first part of this book because it tells you the ending
Besides that it's a gripping tale that will have you on the edge of your sit longing for the next chapter

Easy listening, nice short story 'break" between listening to longer books
Love this story from Stephen King, and the audio book does it justice, the performance is weighty and relevant to the tone of the story

Great story. Narrator needs work.
There are many negative reviews of this audiobook due to Stephen King giving away the ending in his introduction but thankfully it seems audible has listened and the introduction is now after the novel.
The only downside to this audiobook is the narrator who has a good voice but annoyingly speaks some words very softly and then almost yells others which makes it very difficult to set a good listening level.

Magnificent
Great story, great performance. Loved it. I appreciate an atypical ending; it's more satisfying, somehow, than the run of the mill kind.

That ending....
Early King books are some of my favorite. The running man is not as gripping as I would of liked but the story is smooth and the reading is clear and on point.
