À propos de ce contenu audio

Master storyteller Stephen King, whose “restless imagination is a power that cannot be contained” (The New York Times Book Review), presents an unforgettable and relentless #1 New York Times bestseller about a good guy in a bad job.

Chances are, if you’re a target of Billy Summers, two immutable truths apply: You’ll never even know what hit you, and you’re really getting what you deserve. He’s a killer for hire and the best in the business—but he’ll do the job only if the assignment is a truly bad person. But now, time is catching up with him, and Billy wants out. Before he can do that though, there’s one last hit, which promises a generous payday at the end of the line even as things don’t seem quite on the level here. Given that Billy is among the most talented snipers in the world, a decorated Iraq war vet, and a virtual Houdini when it comes to vanishing after the job is done, what could possibly go wrong? How about everything.

Part war story and part love letter to small-town America and the people who live there, this spectacular thriller of luck, fate, and love will grip readers with its electrifying narrative, as a complex antihero with one last shot at redemption must avenge the crimes of an extraordinarily evil man. You won’t ever forget this stunning novel from master storyteller Stephen King…and you will never forget Billy.

    "Narrator Paul Sparks's performance is so perfect it challenges the listener to stop listening. Sure—just TRY to turn it off! Sparks is fantastic, whether he's giving voice to a fat Mafioso called Pig or a young rape victim who turns to Billy for help or the other colorful characters from King's work. While Billy's character is a tad far-fetched, it fits the definition of antihero—think Showtime's Dexter. And because the story is told in the first person, listeners see the decent person inside the man with blood on his hands."

    Loved the book so much! One of the best King novels! I didn’t like the narrator in the beginning but he read it amazingly well!

    Incredible

    The narrator stops. At bad timings it is, infuriating.
    I clearly wouldn't have finished the novel if it wasn't a King who is still at the top of his game. The story is captivating, side characters so rich even if their existence in the book is ephemeral; and a surprisingly poetic ending for a hired killer novel.
    The only caveat in my opinion is the poor narrator performance. Seems like punctuation was taken out of the text he was reading. Such a shame the book deserves 5 had the narrating been decent.

    great novel poor performance

    I bought this audio book not knowing what to expect but knowing I love Stephen King.
    This is something of a departure from his usual work in that there is nothing supernatural or at least very very little. Having said that this what critics call hard to put down. The performance is excellent and I would recommend this audio book to any Stephen King fans as well as any fans of suspense fiction. The references to his previous works of the shining and the stand in this case are always a pleasure.

    A pleasant surprise

    The first part of the story was great; got hooked ! However, the second part (starting from when Belly met Alice) is booofff , whatever!

    I've got mixed feelings about the story!

    I was curious to see what Stephen King would do out of the horror genre.
    The only negative thing I have to say is that the story somewhat lacks originality. But it’s still a very well written story, and narrator’s flow goes particularly well for this one.

    Great story
