Skeleton Crew

Skeleton Crew

by StephenKing (Author)

Synopsis

King's stunning second collection contains twenty short stories, a short novel, "The Mist", and two poems, each tale showing the distinctive blend of unimaginable terror and realism that typifies King's early work. We meet gramma -- who only wants to hug little George, even after she's dead; a primeval sea creature with an insatiable appetite in the raft; an innocent-looking monkey with evil powers in monkey, and a host of other memorable King creations as he takes the unsuspecting reader on a fantastic journey through the dark, shadowy areas of our innermost fears.
