1922

Craig Wasson’s narration in '1922' is nothing short of extraordinary, capturing every nuance of Stephen King’s dark tale with a chilling intensity that keeps listeners on edge. The story itself is a haunting exploration of violence and morality set against the backdrop of small-town America in the early 20th century. The pacing is impeccable, allowing for both moments of dread and periods of quiet tension to build suspense effectively. However, some sections feel slightly over-the-top, which might be a deal-breaker for purists. Despite this minor quibble, '1922' remains a compelling listen that showcases the best of King's writing alongside Wasson’s stellar performance.
