Format:Mass Market Paperback
King gives us four novellas in this 1990 collection, all are without doubt superb and highlight Kings originality and brilliant characterisation as well as his ability to scare the living daylights out of you.

The first story (The Langoliers) is part horror story and part homage to the golden age of science fiction. A commercial jet travels through a strange vortex in the sky leaving only a handful of passengers alive to land the plane in a deserted airport where they find out what really happens to the past.

The second novella (Secret window, secret garden) is one of Kings best. Morton Rainey (Played by Johnny depp in the up coming movie) goes to his quite lakeside home to escape his divorce and work on his writer's block, things take a nasty turn when a sinister individual shows up at his door accusing him of plagiarism. This story also provides fans with a very telling insight into some of King's own thoughts and feelings as a best-selling author.

'The Library policeman' is an enjoyable little shocker, everything from eye sucking monsters to alien librarians grace the pages of Kings third story. After reading this you'll never return Library books late again.

The last story in the collection 'The Sun Dog' is my personnel favourite. Kevin Delevan receives a polaroid camera for his 15th birthday, every photo he takes yields the same image, that of a monstrous black dog, with picture taken the dog seems to be getting closer and closer to it's viewer. Cool

This is a brilliant collection, every story presents King at his very best.

5.0 out of 5 stars stephen king = legend 18 Oct 2009
Format:Mass Market Paperback
i brought this after watching johnny depp in secret window, so only brought it to read the written adaptation. but found myself enjoying the book more than the film, not only secret window but the other 3 novels aswell, especially 'the sun dog'. excellent read.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great collection 21 Sep 2010
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Again, this book, which has unfortunately been published under two names (Secret window and Four past midnight), is a great collection of four stories. They all tell the stories of characters who are so unfortunate to be led into rather odd circumstances where they have to do their best to cope with the various (and eerie) situations. Each story is in around 200 pages and therefore you have a lot of meat on the bones. I highly recommend this book to anyone and not least to those who are still getting into the wonderful world of the stories of Stephen King.
