very good April 25, 2008
A. Girvan (surrey United Kingdom)
the first of the 3stories is pretty good about a guy going into a divorce and giving up smoking and meeting his wife and her lawyer ina restaurant,
the 2nd story was later made into the film 1408
the 3rd story is the weakest but overalll you have 3 hours of easy listning
Stephen King reads Stephen King, and he does a good job September 11, 2006

"Blood and Smoke" is an audio collection of three Stephen King short stories, read by Stephen King himself, and available on cassette, CD or as an audio download.
The total length of the three stories is approximately 3 3/4 hours.
All three of these stories are very good. They all feature the standard Stephen King ingredients: very believable, fairly ordinary, people, suddenly confronted with a very horrible situation, a situation way beyond the horrors most of us will ever encounter. We empathize with these people and root for them, although we know that they may not survive the horror they've encountered.
Hearing Stephen King read these stories himself is an added bonus. You can hear that he really believes in what he has written, and he thus invites you to join him.
Highly recommended.
All three of these stories are included in the book "Everything's Eventual", along with 11 other short stories by Stephen King. If you dislike audio books or if you want to save money then that is obviously the better deal.

 THE SPOKEN WORD IS SCARIER THAN THE SWORD! July 1, 2000

As a fan of the King this is a unique medium for him. I have always enjoyed his novels more than his short stories but his american drawl certainly gives life to these tales. Sit back - 11 p.m. - nobody else about - stick on the tape/cd - turn of the light - and prepare to be SPOOKED! Highly recommended for such nights as these -ENJOY!
Listen to King at his best. February 24, 2000

This collection of three short stories, only availble on audio, is Stephen King at his best both in his writing and his story telling. If you haven't heard him reading his own stories then this is a great place to start. He loves audio books and it shows...
