UR

<p><big><b>FIRST TIME ON AUDIO...</b></big></p> <p><big><b>An Unabridged Novella Unavailable In Any Collection!</b></big></p> <p>Tapping into our primal fears of modern technology that made <i>Cell</i> a #1 bestseller, Stephen King sets his sights on the latest high-tech gadget in <i>UR,</i> in which a mysterious e-book reader opens a disturbing window into other worlds.</p> <p>Reeling from a painful break-up, English instructor and avid book lover Wesley Smith is haunted by his ex-girlfriend's parting shot: "Why can't you just read off the computer like everyone else?" He buys an e-book reader out of spite, but soon finds he can use the device to glimpse realities he had never before imagined, discovering literary riches beyond his wildest dreams...and all-too-human tragedies that surpass his most terrible nightmares.</p> <p>From vintage cars (<i>Christine</i> and <i>From a Buick 8</i>) to household appliances (<i>Maximum Overdrive</i>) to exercise equipment (<i>Stationary Bike</i>), Stephen King has mesmerized us with tales of apparently ordinary machines that take on lives of their own. <i>UR</i> gives this classic theme an up-to-the-minute spin, resulting in a horror masterpiece for our time and for the ages.</p>
