This week's review TITLE: The Outsider AUTHOR: Stephen King AUDIO BOOK NARRATOR: Will Patton LISTENING TIME: 18 hours 41 minutes PRICE: $39.10 WHAT IT'S ABOUT: The Outsider begins with the very public arrest of a little league baseball coach for the heinous murder of a boy. The police don’t even interview him before the arrest, so sure are they of the evidence they’ve amassed. However things begin to get weird (as they always do in King’s novels) when the coach reveals his mother of all alibies. As the detective's growing doubts about the man’s guilt war with his faith in forensic evidence, his scepticism becomes the ball and chain he drags along as he tries to redeem himself for his life’s greatest mistake. WHO IT'S FOR: This story strikes a nice balance between the genre of crime and the supernatural. If you like detective- driven crime and can stomach some fantasy/horror, you’ll find it a refreshing twist to the usual ‘who-dunnit’. Be warned, the description of the murder scene isn’t for the faint of heart. WHY YOU SHOULD READ OR LISTEN TO IT: Stephen King isn’t one of the most widely known living writers for nothing! It’s a gripping listen, a decent length and a satisfying, if slightly predictable, ending. NARRATION QUALITY: Will Patton is a gem of a narrator. His voice acting is superb and really was the clincher that made it hard to stop listening to. He gave life and humour to some of King’s more eccentric characters, and didn’t overact the more central roles, all of who were distinct and easy to identify. His portrayal of the Outsider was particularly creepy and impressive.
