About this audiobook
First came the days of the plague. Then came the dreams.
Dark dreams that warned of the coming of the dark man. The apostate of death, his worn-down boot heels tramping the night roads. The warlord of the charnel house and Prince of Evil.
His time is at hand. His empire grows in the west and the Apocalypse looms.

A must read for King fans. The first third of this epic story is one of the best horror stories I've read/heard (hits even harder after COVID). I can understand why some say the second half of the book isn't as good but once I met these characters there was no way I wasn't seeing how it all ended

Absolutely loved this audiobook. Great narration taking you into King's longest story. I'll be re-listening very soon, a must purchase for fans and newbies alike!

I got the book of this years ago at an airport but couldn't get into it I think I was too young now after listening to the audiobook I regret it because this was amazing. I would highly recommend it to anyone and don't let the length put you off if anything it'll keep you going longer.
