The Green Mile: Coffey on the Mile (Green Mile Series)

Summary: Part 6 in The Green Mile Serialization
Review: "Coffey on the Mile" is the longest book in the series (130+ pages), while the other five had averaged approximately 90 pages. In this sixth and final installment in The Green Mile serialization, the true identity of the twins' killer is revealed (though I won't give that away, because it's a shocker). Plus, the killer and Percy Wetmore (the evil prison guard), at last(!), get what they deserve. And as for John Coffey: well, that was just a tear-jerker. I won't give away what happens to him either. You just have to read the series--or just this book, if you want to skip the rest.

In the afterword, King points out some of his anachronisms in the series, like whether or not certain radio programs were broadcast in 1932. These "mistakes" were still left in the serial novel, as far as I can tell, even though King had considered removing them. But what was removed was this afterword, as well as the foreword in book #1 ("The Two Dead Girls"); so there were a few things altered by the end.

Summary: ONE BOOK PLEASE!!!!
Review: I eagerly anticipated the arrival of a new series every month. I walked into the grocery store just a few days ago and realized they had finally put the series into one book. Why? Was it so special that King just had to put the " Green Mile"into a series and then into one book! Give me a break! It was a really good book with a wonderful story, but next time one book will be just fine!!

Summary: Simply put...Wow
Review: With this novel, King concludes the wonderful The Green Mile series, and he does this with mastery and excellence. The anguish of Coffey's fate will bring the reader to tears, and the fact that he is going to die for a crime he did not commit is truly heartbreaking. In addition, the destinies of all the other main characters will engross the reader.

The Green Mile is a book that has captivated this reader, and I couldn't wait to continue this fantastic series and discover the newest secrets and see how the story unfolded. What King has done here is indescribable, and it can only be hoped that the movie rendition can live up to the phenomenal The Green Mile.
