Book description
Audiobook Review: A Good Marriage by Stephen King
From the very first word, Stephen King's "A Good Marriage" pulls listeners into a world that feels both eerily familiar and disturbingly alien. Narrated with a steady, almost conversational cadence, the audio version lets us inhabit Darcy Anderson's quiet suburban life before it shatters-no unnecessary dramatics, just a clear voice that makes every revelation feel personal.
The story begins with mundane detail: a routine business trip, a search for batteries in a garage, a toe bumping against a hidden box. That ordinary moment becomes the hinge on which everything pivots, and the narrator's calm delivery heightens the shock when Darcy discovers her husband is not one man but two-one a devoted father, the other a predator who has terrorized their town. The duality of his character is rendered with such precision that listeners can feel the weight of each new fact sinking in.
King's prose is sharp and unflinching; he does not waste words on fluff. The audiobook captures this economy beautifully: pauses are used to let the horror settle, while the narrator's tone subtly shifts when the stakes rise. Even though the story is short-originally part of Full Dark, No Stars-the audio version packs a punch that lingers long after the final page.
What makes this recording stand out is how it balances tension and realism. The soundscape is minimal, letting King's narrative do the heavy lifting, yet subtle background cues (a creaking floorboard, distant sirens) ground us in the scene without pulling our focus away. This restraint keeps the story grounded, making the terror feel immediate rather than fantastical.
In sum, "A Good Marriage" is a masterclass in building dread from everyday life. The audiobook delivers an immersive experience that will keep listeners on edge, craving more of King's dark storytelling. If you're looking for a short but potent ride through psychological horror, this is the one to add to your queue.
