Under The Dome: A Novel Audiobook

" This one of the best books with a surprisingly strange ending "

" Absolutely excellent in every way there is.To be sure. "

" Read this monster in two days. I am a fast reader by nature but this book had me hooked. I usually can do 200 to 300 pages a day. I was going more like 400 to 600 for this book. Anyway good book all the way though. "

" Great book with a not so great ending. "

" Flawed but took me book to my teenage years reading other King books this size. Made me happy that Stephen King is still around. One of the reasons a Kindle was invented. "

" Loved it, however, it was very long. May have been best published as two books. "

" Great book. Quite a long read, but it goes by pretty quick. VERY interesting story, and I love the parallels to the Bush administration. Off the top of my head, there are few characters frmo other books that I despise more than Big Jim Renney. Without ruining the story, I just wish some of those evil *ssholes had gotten more of what they deserved. The ending was a bit odd and abrupt, but still, a great book. "

" Dry and boring. Definitely could have been a much shorter book, and I probably would have liked it more. "

" This book is never ending. That being said it remained mostly interesting throughout. The characters were intriguing and the book was well researched to be as lose to real as possible. But the book is loooooooong. Halved and concentrated would have been wonderful. "

" I love long books with communities of characters. I also loved that I couldn't predict the end. I truly enjoyed the novel and I'll be thinking about it for some time. "

" I felt this was very much like The Stand in that it is a social study of human behaviours in extreme conditions, in this case a large dome placed over a whole society. Very engrossing and highly recommended. "

" A long read. A huge number of characters. Good story over-all. "

" I've read critiques of this from people who clearly thought that it was meant to be an anthropological study. Well in a way it is. A rattling good yarn with all your most loathed stereotypes plotting and scheming. "

" Gripping. Ending was a little anticlimactic. "

" This was my second Stephen King book (after 11/22/63) and wow! Loved it! "

" The majority of the story was fantastic. You quickly realize how fast things can go to the dark side. It was the ending that was so disappointing. It lost 2 stars for that. "

" Not necessarily the kind of Stephen King book I love - but Under the Dome wasn't terrible. I enjoyed the character development and idea of the dome...but I think it fell short. I feel like he gave up at the end. "

" Not a horror book but more of a scientific fiction novel with a lot of about human behavior. "

" Actually something between 4.5 and 5 stars. The end was quite abortive for me but the rest was excellent... "

" one of my top three king books "

" Possibly my favorite Stephen King book to date. An enlightening look at the psychology & human condition when a small town is isolated & left completely to their own demise. "

" This is definitely a horrific tale. Well written in true King fashion. It's not for the faint of heart. King is undeniably a fantastic writer and draws the reader well into the little town of Chester's Mill. "

" Love it!!! Can't wait for the TV Show this summer:) "

" This was a very good listen! "

" Since I can't seem to finish the audiobook, I think I am just going to have to pick up the book and dig in. "

" I don't know why, I could'n pass page 30!!! But I'll try again... "

" I really enjoyed this book and if it wasn't for the ending, which i felt was a let down, i would have given it 5 stars. "

" awesome of course Stephen King is the master in his genre "

" The story is not too original - it combines the 'city under dome' idea from Tommyknockers with character interaction similar to Needful Things. It's well written though, but I still feel like being cheater to consume some leftovers rather than the fresh meal I ordered (and paid for). "

" So far I am loving this book, hate to put it down, but the eyes get too heavy... and I have to. "

" Epic. That's the best word to describe stephen king's greatest work since the shawshank redemption. I must warn you it takes a long time to really get going (like 400 pages). If you have the patience though the pace picks up and never stops. "

" It is a decent read til the end, which almost killed the whole book. One of the lamest endings I have ever read. Other than that is was okay. "

" I hate that I'm reading a book like this....but it works for long plane flights. Because the story is about an entire town that is trapped under a dome, there are alot of characters to keep track of. The story is getting a little bizzarre now, so I might not finish. "

" I really, really wanted to finish this, but I made it to page 800 or so. The best bit was the beginning, and then it sputtered out. I'm afraid that the ending would have been lackluster and disappointing, so I decided to give it my own ending. "

" It's so bloated, unwieldy, and poorly planned out you can expect "all the bad guys to get magically killed off" two chapters in. Also includes an unecessary rape scene. "

" SK very rarely disappoints, and this book was no exception (SK has always been about very deep characters and characterisations in unusual situations), and he stands as one of the few authors that inspired me to be a writer. "

" So far so good. I really wonder where this story will go. "

" It kept me entertained up to the last few chapters and then it got weird. "

" A return to classic King... dependable stock characters, small town secrets, high body count. "

" I really enjoyed the world that the author created with all of the dynamic characters. The book left me with questions like what would people do if they were trapped beneath an invisible dome. I can really see it playing out as he described. I definitely recommend this novel. "

" excellent. really long (1074 pages!), but worth the read. "
