5 reviews
£3.00 GBP

When a game of seduction between a husband and wife ends in death, the nightmare has only just begun in this sinister twist on a bedtime story - a number-one national best seller and "one of Stephen King's best" (USA Today).

Gerald and Jessie Burlington have gone to their summer home on a warm weekday in October for a romantic getaway. After being handcuffed to her bedposts, Jessie tires of her husband's games, but when Gerald refuses to stop, the evening ends with deadly consequences. Still handcuffed, Jessie is trapped and alone.

Over the next 28 hours, in the lakeside house that has become a prison, Jessie will come face to face with all the things she has ever feared. Her only company is a hungry stray dog and the various voices that fill her mind. As night comes, she is unsure whether it is her imagination or if she has another companion: someone watching her from the corner of her dark bedroom.

A master of his craft, Stephen King's novels haunt in many different ways. Gerald's Game "kept us up half the night, we couldn't put it down" (Newsweek).

This book was so good in a creepy, disturbing way. Read the book first then watch the Netflix original movie.

Okay I love Stephen King and I simply love Gerald's Game! I read this book for the first time when I was in my early 20's, again when I was in my early 30's and I am reading it for the third time in my early 40's! I have gotten a different perspective with each read but the one thing that has remained consistent is how much I love Stephen King! He has a talent for building up the most gruesome and horrifying words that you can practically place yourself as the victim in his novels! If you enjoyed Dolores Claiborne (DC), which I did, you will appreciate Gerald's Game (the eclipse portion in this book reads very similar to the eclipse in DC). But other than that the entire premise is completely different, very graphic, and gruesomely descriptive. You can not help but feel for the woman in this book! Feel, and HOPE you... More
