Stephen King’s next book is almost here. You Like It Darker, a collection of short stories, releases Tuesday, May 21. Published by King’s longtime publisher Scribner, You Like It Darker will join King’s wildly impressive bibliography that already includes over 10 story collections–not to mention the 60-plus novels. If you’re a King fan, you can save big on your preorder right now. You Like It Darker is discounted to $18.90 (was $30) at Amazon, which represents a savings of 37%. The Kindle version is available to preorder for $15, and Audible Premium Plus members can use their monthly credit for the audiobook edition.

You Like It Darker: Stories is a hardcover collection of 12 new tales by King. Clocking in at over 500 pages, the massive volume will “delve into the darker part of life–both metaphorical and literal.” Included in the collection you’ll find Two Talented Bastids, Danny Coughlin’s Bad Dream, Rattlesnakes (a sequel to Cujo), The Dreamers, and The Answer Man.
If you’d rather enjoy the upcoming collection as an audiobook, consider checking out Audible. New members are eligible for one month of Premium Plus for free, and it comes with a bonus credit right now. This means you’ll get two Audible credits that can be used to redeem audiobooks from the Premium Plus catalog. Those audiobooks will be yours to keep, even if your subscription lapses.
If you’re a current or lapsed Audible member, you can buy three credits for $38. Not concerned about other audiobooks? The You Like It Darker: Stories audiobook is available for $18 (down from $26).
If you enjoy You Like It Darker and decide to check out King’s other short story collections, here’s a list of King story collections available on Amazon. Or, if you want the complete opposite Stephen King experience, check out The Dark Tower eight-book box set for $77 (list price is $161). The Dark Tower series is King’s longest work, and these eight dark fantasy novels are stellar reads, even if you don’t like King’s traditional horror.
