Start anywhere in UR by Stephen King. Filed under Literature & Fiction. Speed and chapter jumps sit above the description.

Tapping into our primal fears of modern technology, which made Cell a number-one best seller, Stephen King sets his sights on the latest high-tech gadget in UR , in which a mysterious e-audiobook reader opens a disturbing window into other worlds. Reeling from a painful break-up, English instructor and avid book lover Wesley Smith is haunted by his ex-girlfriend’s parting shot: “Why can’t you just read off the computer like everyone else?” He buys an e-book reader out of spite, but soon finds he can use the device to glimpse realities he had never before imagined, discovering literary riches beyond his wildest dreams…and all-too-human tragedies that surpass his most terrible nightmares. From vintage cars ( Christine and From a Buick 8 ) to household appliances ( Maximum Overdrive ) to exercise equipment ( Stationary Bike ), Stephen King has mesmerized us with tales of apparently ordinary machines that take on lives of their own. UR gives this classic theme an up-to-the-minute spin, resulting in a horror masterpiece for our time and for the ages. ©2010 Stephen King (P)2010 Simon & Schuster
