A long book (my copy 25 discs, 30.75 hours) that, nevertheless, I found completely riveting. Mr. King just keeps on getting better. Narrator Craig Wasson was excellent, sounding like he was telling a story rather than reading. Definitely one of my favorites.

Entertaining book posing many interesting "what ifs" surrounding the assassination of JFK. The book has 2 shortfalls, in opinion:1) it is way too long and gets a bit repetitive/slow at several points; 2) the author tends to interject his own political views, which detract from the overall enjoyment.

Always glanced at this book in the bookstores but wasn't quite in the mood to travel back to the Kennedy era. Stumbled a upon it again on audio books and after a sample preview I was HOOKED! Narration was the bomb and the story line engaging. Would highly recommend to anyone who is thinking twice about it..you won't be sorry.

I stopped reading Stephen King a few years back -- don't really like horror, thrillers -- but this one intrigued me because of the subject. Loved it -- character development, the what if's -- & the history I lived thru as a teenager. Despite the length (25 discs) I wanted it to go on. King is an excellent story teller & I plan to go back to some of the previous titles I missed.

I'm surprised everyone has such positive reviews on this book. I am a fan of Stephen King and have read a handful of his books and normally enjoy them. It feels like there is about 10 hours in the middle of the book that could simply just be chopped out of the books altogether and I'm not sure anyone would notice. "The past always harmonizes with the future". Get used to hearing that line because the main character says this after everything he does. It's probably in the book somewhere between 50-100 different instances. I also found it strange that King kept referring to saving Kennedy as saving the world. It really did feel like he was trying to push is political agenda constantly referencing the negative in politics and how apparently if Kennedy were saved this would all be fixed. Narrator was solid. Easy to listen and follow although his Oswald sounds the same as the main character so you can get them mixed up in a couple of spots.

I love this book. One of Stephen King's best! The narrator really keeps engaged in this book.

Fantastic. Read it years ago and liked it, but audio is so good! Narrator is amazing getting the Main accents perfect.

Book was enthralling. Was hard to stop listening. That said I’m watching the series on Amazon Prime and it’s so different and misses so much in the first 3 episodes. I hope it gets better as I go

This would have been a great book if Stephen King was still being edited and the words weren't just falling out of his head directly into the book store without wasting time or effort required to actually, you know, make it a good book. You could cut this book by a third without losing anything important. Other people have made this same complaint, and King--rather pompously--claims those critics don't understand "texture." Yeesh. Tolkien created "texture." In this novel, King spends, I dunno, three or for pages--it seemed to go on forever in the audiobook--on a conversation with someone about getting a key to an apartment. Read that sentence over again and decide whether or not anything important was added to the story during the trudge to just picking up an simple apartment key. There is "texture" and there is "fluff." There is a lot of fluff. Oh, and another spoiler alert: one of the several key mysteries never gets resolved. So, a lot of fluff and a bit of a cop-out.

An interesting story…well told. Anxious to watch the TV series. Continue to love SK’s writing!
