## Description

You Like It Darker: the Sunday Times number one bestseller (May 2024) : King, Stephen: desertcart.co.uk: Books

Review: Tales from the Dark Side - King says in an afterword that he finds short fiction a challenge - but he’s produced a lot of it, and it’s always excellent. You Like It Darker, which refers to a Leonard Cohen song title, is a collection of the weird and macabre. It’s buttressed by two novellas. One is a kind of sequel to Cujo, or at least features the same protagonist. This time the scary animals in question are rattlesnakes. There’s also a long story (Danny Coughlin’s Bad Dream) about a man who has a bad dream - which turns out to be real. It’s the jewel in the crown of this creepy catalogue - and could have been a full-length novel. There are also some stories which function more like short, sharp shocks. None of the tales outstays its welcome. The final one - The Answer Man - is excellent. King says it was a fragment stowed away and forgotten about, before its discovery by a family member - who thought it had legs. King duly obliged and wrote it up. Fans will need no persuading to give this a try - but for those who have never tried King before, You Like It Darker might be as good a place as any to start …
Review: Good book - Some good stories. Very enjoyable

Some good stories. Very enjoyable

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dark,varied,and Solidly entertaining.
*by J***L on 23 January 2026*

You Like It Darker is a strong collection that showcases Stephen Kings range.While I enjoyed the collection,it didn't quite hit the same level as some of his earlier work. Not the best, but not the worst either.
