What to expect

To the children, the town was their whole world. To the adults, knowing better, Derry Maine was just their home town: familiar, well-ordered for the most part. A good place to live.

It was the children who saw - and felt - what made Derry so horribly different. In the storm drains, in the sewers, IT lurked, taking on the shape of every nightmare, each one's deepest dread. Sometimes IT reached up, seizing, tearing, killing . . .

The adults, knowing better, knew nothing.

Time passed and the children grew up, moved away. The horror of IT was deep-buried, wrapped in forgetfulness. Until they were called back, once more to confront IT as IT stirred and coiled in the sullen depths of their memories, reaching up again to make their past nightmares a terrible present reality.

Very long listen... Obviously. I like that you can tell the difference between the childrens voices and the adult, makes the flashbacks less confusing.

This book was like King's final essay in monster horror. He has yet to better IT!

Great listen, Stephen King writes his characters so well. I remember reading the original book long before the films. This is the book which is more along the lines of the film, but there's more than was shown.
