Billy Summers is Stephen King's gripping and compelling novel about a contract killer, an ex-marine, with one last payday to earn before he retires.... Once again, King sets his storytelling talent on a new path with this epic new thriller.

From legendary storyteller and number one best-selling author Stephen King, whose ‘restless imagination is a power that cannot be contained’ (The New York Times Book Review), comes a thrilling new novel about a good guy in a bad job.

Billy Summers is a man in a room with a gun. He’s a killer for hire and the best in the business. But he’ll do the job only if the target is a truly bad guy. And now Billy wants out. But first there is one last hit. Billy is among the best snipers in the world, a decorated Iraq war vet, a Houdini when it comes to vanishing after the job is done. So what could possibly go wrong?

How about everything.

This spectacular can’t-put-it-down novel is part war story, part love letter to small-town America and the people who live there, and it features one of the most compelling and surprising duos in King fiction, who set out to avenge the crimes of an extraordinarily evil man. It’s about love, luck, fate, and a complex hero with one last shot at redemption.

You won’t put this story down, and you won’t forget Billy.

Lesenswert

Was soll ich sagen ?
Als jahrelanger King Fan war dieses Buch natürlich wieder ein Muss.
Es geht recht schleppend voran , nimmt dann aber so richtig Fahrt auf.
Es ist immer wieder überraschend wie sehr Stephen King Bilder in deinem Kopf malt und du in seinen Welten lebst. Außerdem sind die Dialoge authentisch.
Alles in allem sehr empfehlenswert auch für Leute die kein Horror mögen da dies keine Horror Story ist.
Ach so , ich lese seine Bücher auf englisch da ich die Übersetzungen nicht mag.
Falls ihr das Buch also nicht so toll findet, liegt es an der Übersetzung 😉

Export Edition

I always get the First Edition of a New Stephen King Novel. This time Scribener sold the Rest of the World an ‘Export Edition’. Cheap quality print to increase profit. Some pages letters get so light that it’s hard to read them.

Pas ce à quoi je m'attendais...

Reviewed in France on 22 August 2021

1) L'article est arrivé sans problème, neuf, couverture de l'édition américaine (ce que je recherchais). Bref, rien à signaler niveau qualité du produit : impeccable.
2) L'histoire sans spoiler : je ne m'attendais pas vraiment à ce genre d'histoire et c'est bien ! On pense que l'intrigue, qui met un peu de temps à s'installer, va plomber le livre mais, de moins point de vue, que du contraire. Cela approfondi le personnage et que de rebondissement une fois les fondations mises en place.
Je n'en dirai pas plus, je conseille vraiment ce livre !
Stephen King m'épate une fois encore de par sa créativité.

Stephen King: Billy Summers

Reviewed in Germany on 18 October 2021

Verified Purchase

St. King einmal nicht mit Thema Horror oder Fantasy. Geschickt zeichnet er die Figur des Snipers und webt auch noch sein anderes Thema des Schriftstellers mit hinein. Für mich einer der besseren King-Romane. Lese halt gerne in englisch, da kommen viele Details heraus, die in deutscher Übersetzung nicht möglich sind.
