About this ebook

Inspired by Richard Matheson's classic "Duel," "Throttle," by Joe Hill and Stephen King, is a duel of a different kind, pitting a faceless trucker against a tribe of motorcycle outlaws in the simmering Nevada desert. Their battle is fought out on twenty miles of the most lonely road in the country, a place where the only thing worse than not knowing what you're up against, is slowing down . . .

Ratings and reviews

Stephen King /Joe Hill. Recently having discovered Joe Hill (and having long since read everything his Old Man has written at least thrice) I was delighted to come across this. And was even more delighted to read it. Only negative...too short. Do it again guys!!

Fast fun read! King is my fave author of all time and I have really enjoyed reading hill's work too. Heart shaped box is the bomb. Buy read and enjoy. Its .99 for goodness sake:-)

For $9 and Kings name I expected an entertaining full size novel not a short story at 32 pages. Live and learn.......
