Summary: Stephen King is still the master!
Review: Having been a big Stephen King fan since high school, I rarely found myself disappointed with his work. Last year's "Dreamcatcher" was my least favorite book of his by far. I was afraid "Everything's Eventual" might suffer the same problems I had with his last novel, but thankfully, I was overall very pleased with his newest short story collection. I prefer scary stories, but in this case, the variety of stories was the best way to go. There's a bit of everything here, from downright chillers like "The Road Virus Heads North" to the more comical "L.T.'s Theory of Pets". The title story, "Everything's Eventual", was scary in a totally different way as it described the ruined life of a gifted young man who has been given the job from hell. "The Road Virus Heads North" is my favorite of them all; I was practically shaking as I read it. My only complaint with the novel is the too long "The Little Sistes of Eluria". Having not read any of the Dark Tower series, getting through this story (longest in the book) was a chore and made me quit reading it for a few weeks until I struggled through it. I'd recommend this book to anyone, horror fan or not. There's enough variety here to please almost any reader. Fans who might be disheartened by "Dreamcatcher" should not pass this one up, it will restore your faith in the "Master of the Macabre".

Summary: Wonderful Collection of Short Stories
Review: Once again, King takes us on a rollercoaster ride of thrills and chills. Each story brings its own unique charm to the reader. While some of the stories aren't quite as fast-paced and terrorizing as others, the blend of themes is still quite captivating. I would highly recommend this book to any avid King fan as well as those interested in a trip down the dark alley of a very impressive imagination...

Summary: Highly recommended
Review: One of Stephen King's best! These fourteen short stories show his skills in many different types of stories. Although many of the stories have been previously published in other forms, I liked that I could get them all in one book. If you are a Dark Tower fan, there is a short story that you won't be able to pass up as well. I was glad that none of the stories disappointed. I rate this a MUST buy!

Summary: ok, but not his best
Review: I'm about to finish these tales and have determined that they are not as interesting (or as good) as many of his other collections, mainly Night Shift and Nightmares and Dreamscapes. The stories seem to touch on ideas he has already used (kind of like Tommyknockers and Dreamcater). The story of The Road Virus Heads North is very similar to the Sun Dog in Four Past Midnight (I did enjoy Virus though). And he throws in a silly story about a mobster dying of a gunshot wound, please (not so enjoyable)! It is worth reading, especially if you check it out of your local library or wait and buy the paperback. Three of the stories are available on audio in Blood and Smoke. They are great when read my the Master himself.

Summary: King at his best
Review: This book is simply King at his best. King continues to amaze me with his mastery of both the novel as well as his short stories. Nobody else can fully develop a plot in such a small amount of time as King can. This book is on a parallel with his previous short story collections, and it is a page turner that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Simply amazing!

Summary: A Very Good Book Of Stories..
Review: This book was very good. I love Kings short stories and the way he writes a little something about each tale. I didn't like every story but even a bad story by King is interesting. I was glad to see King get back to a little horror which I miss so much from him.

Summary: Stephen King is a frighteningly good storyteller.
Review: I haven't read much Stephen King in the past decade or so, but I am certainly glad I picked up "Everything's Eventual." King shoots and scores 14 times with the tales in this collection. The title story, about an ordinary young man with an extraordinary talent for delivering death is especially noteworthy, as is "Lunch at the Gotham Café," a horrific account of a very bad lunch at a very nice restaurant! The inclusion of "Riding the Bullet," the twisted hitchhiker yarn, allows the few of us who missed it in it's original e-book incarnation to read and savor it as well. A grand group of tales by a master storyteller. Highly recommended.

Summary: King has gone downhill since the accident
Review: In my opinion, something very unfortunate happened in with King's accident. He seems to have lost that edge in his writing that kept me begging for more. I was pretty disappointed with this book, as I have been with most of King's post-accident work. There was really only one story that I found truly entertaining and that was "The Little Sisters of Eluria". I have only read one of King's Darktower series, but I think that is where his heart truly lies now. Everything else is just superficial. Also, a number of the stories had been published elsewhere. For my money, the story "1408" belongs on the audio-tape and should stay there. It was a great story to have read out loud, but it lost something in print.

Summary: King Does It Again With New Collection
Review: Horror meister Stephen King is your guide to instant chills in his latest Everything's Eventual, 14 shorts guaranteed to keep you up many late nights. Some are scary in their utter simplicity like "Lt's Theory Of Pets" and "The Man In The Black Suit", but none of these stories fail to leave some lasting effect on the reader. One of the standouts is the title story, which is the best short story I've read in a long time. Couldn't Stephen get his own anthology series? Oh well. For now, eat at a cafe where terror is on the menu, thumb a ride that may be your last, and witness an autopsy that may or may not be necessary. From one of the most original and briliant imaginations of modern literature, comes 14 reasons to stay home-behind safely locked doors with all the lights on.
