First read this collection when I was... twenty, I think. Not sure. Does it matter? Probably not. Three things to mention before hitting you with my one sentence reviews: I forgot how much of King's early work tied into these stories, and how much I enjoyed his non-horror outings.

I don't quite know how to rate this collection. It's pretty uneven, and spans several genres. I loved "I am the Doorway".
