I thought that the illustrations throughout this short story were well done, I found they were not really needed. As with nearly everything I have ever read that King has had his hand in strengthened is almost too much descriptive prose that doesn't leave room left for the reader's imagination.The story is well thought out but a bit predictable. That said it is still an entertaining short read that goes relatively fast- which is something I like when reading a short story or novella such as this. It will be interesting to see other effort by this father son team! For what it is (a straight-forward biker tale written as homage to the late, great Richard Matheson), it's very good. Pretty much the last thing I felt the world needed was another DUEL rip-off, but THROTTLE was entertaining enough to make up for its tired premise. There's only so much you can cram into a short story, so I'm willing to cut THROTTLE some slack. Plus, for me, King's prose always warrants an extra star.
What do You think about Plein Gaz (2014)?
Nice action! I saw the movie a long time ago....I like this version with motorcycles too.
