SynopsisA New York Times Bestseller Thirteen relentless tales of supernatural suspense, including "In the Tall Grass," one of two stories cowritten with Stephen King and the basis for the terrifying feature film from Netflix. A little door that opens to a world of fairy-tale wonders becomes the blood-drenched stomping ground for a gang of hunters in "Faun." A grief-stricken librarian climbs behind the wheel of an antique Bookmobile to deliver fresh reads to the dead in "Late Returns." In "By the Silver Water of Lake Champlain"--now an episode on Shudder TV's Creepshow--two young friends stumble on the corpse of a plesiosaur at the water's edge, a discovery that forces them to confront the inescapable truth of their own mortality. And tension shimmers in the sweltering heat of the Nevada desert as a faceless trucker finds himself caught in a sinister dance with a tribe of motorcycle outlaws in "Throttle," cowritten with Stephen King. Replete with shocking chillers, including two previously unpublished stories written expressly for this volume ("Mums" and "Late Returns") and another appearing in print for the first time ("Dark Carousel"), Full Throttle is a darkly imagined odyssey through the complexities of the human psyche. Hypnotic and disquieting, it mines our tormented secrets, hidden vulnerabilities, and basest fears, and demonstrates this exceptional talent at his very best., New York Times Bestseller In this masterful collection of short fiction, Joe Hill dissects timeless human struggles in thirteen relentless tales of supernatural suspense, including "In The Tall Grass," one of two stories co-written with Stephen King and the basis for the terrifying feature film from Netflix.

  • Love Joe Hill’s Books

    He’s an incredible author and a helluva nice guy too. And in case you didn’t know, he’s Stephen King’s son.

  • Full Throttle by Joe Hill Hardback FORMER Library Edition

    I do not purchase books having UNREMOVABLE stickers inside/outside of the books, I did not noticed this was a used "Library" hard back. My mistake. I certainly will be more astute regarding future "Descriptions" on books.

  • amateurish

    The stories are amateurish, except the one where Hill writes with his father Stephen King.
