Read this
history-making serial novel -- from cliffhanger to
cliffhanger -- in its entirety.
When it first appeared, one volume per month, Stephen King's
The Green Mile was an unprecedented publishing triumph: all
six volumes ended up on the New York Times bestseller list
-- simultaneously -- and delighted millions of fans the
world over.
Welcome to Cold Mountain Penitentiary, home to the
Depression-worn men of E Block. Convicted killers all, each
awaits his turn to walk the Green Mile, keeping a date with
"Old Sparky," Cold Mountain's electric chair. Prison guard
Paul Edgecombe has seen his share of oddities in his years
working the Mile. But he's never seen anyone like John
Coffey, a man with the body of a giant and the mind of a
child, condemned for a crime terrifying in its violence and
shocking in its depravity. In this place of ultimate
retribution, Edgecombe is about to discover the terrible,
wondrous truth about Coffey, a truth that will challenge his
most cherished beliefs...and yours.
Stephen King's most
gripping and unforgettable novel, Bag of Bones, is a story
of grief and a lost love's enduring bonds, of a new love
haunted by the secrets of the past, of an innocent child
caught in a terrible crossfire. |
