About this listen

Wentworth, Ohio: a small, friendly town where the Carver children bicker over sweets in the E-Z shop and writer Johnny Marinville is the only resident who minds his own business. On Poplar Street, apart from the impending storm, it's just a normal summer's day - with Frisbees flying, lawn mowers humming and barbeques grilling.

As the paperboy makes his round, he is unaware of the chrome-red van idling up the hill....

Soon the residents will be caught up in a game of wills as the regulators arrive in force to face a child whose powers of expression are just awakening.

If you like The Regulators, don't miss Desperation, written as an unidentical pair.

©1996 Richard Bachman (P)2016 Simon & Schuster Audio Suspense Thriller & Suspense Scary

I’m a huge Stephen King fan even if he is writing under the pseudonym of Richard Bachman.
A cleverly constructed story interwoven with its characters in both worlds and times.
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audiobook and I can now move into the other novels in the series!

Before listening to this I read the only review which did not favour the story. I however found it a fun story and liked it slightly better than its counterpart ‘Desperation’. This version of the Tak saga told in a parallel reality is a treasure waiting for the King / Bachman devotee and as always Frank Muller is an enjoyable reader.

Good fun!

I'm a Stephen King constant reader. And I will be for life. So of course the story is amazing. But that narrator 🤣🤣 wtf. that's all I can say.

The Narrator Sucks

I have been a Stephen king for decades and this is a his first booked that I haven’t liked at all. Too much blood guts and gratuitous violence. How others could describe this read as ‘fun’ confounds me.

Didn’t love it at all
