About this listen

At Cold Mountain Penitentiary, along the lonely stretch of cells known as the Green Mile, killers such as "Billy the Kid" Wharton and the possessed Eduard Delacroix await death strapped in "Old Sparky". Guards as decent as Paul Edgecombe and as sadistic as Percy Wetmore watch over them.

But good or evil, innocent or guilty, none has ever seen the brutal likes of the new prisoner, John Coffey, sentenced to death for raping and murdering two young girls. Is Coffey a devil in human form? Or is he a far, far different kind of being?

There are more wonders in heaven and hell than anyone at Cold Mountain can imagine. In The Green Mile, Stephen King builds the tension page by page and then delivers a revelation that will truly blow your mind.

Love this so much!

Listened to this and thoroughly enjoyed both story and performance. Love the story from seeing the movie, the book as always being better. I cried, I laughed and I was sorry when it was over! A must for anyone to have in their collection in my opinion!!

Give us more Stephen King

I really enjoyed this book and thought the narrator was excellent. I wish Audible had more Stephen King books - especially the older stuff.
