Riding the Bullet by Stephen King has been described as a "ghost story in the grand manner" and the story of "a young man who hitches a ride with a driver from the other side," but in this special edition only available from Lonely Road Books, we're going to show you King's classic novella in a way you've never seen it before: alongside the feature film screenplay adaptation by director Mick Garris. The road from print to the silver screen is often a bumpy one and much has been written about how a story is sometimes transformed to make it work in moving pictures. This is your chance to experience Riding the Bullet in a way only those close to the production of the film ever have. Start with King's original novella, then flip the book over and read the original script by Mick Garris. Compare what he kept, what he had to change, and even the storytelling flourishes he added to round out the tale. This is the very first Stephen King Limited Edition to be published in this manner, and it was a huge hit with the collectors. Award-winning filmmaker Mick Garris has written or co-authored numerous feature films and teleplays, and he is Creator and Executive Producer of Showtime's Masters of Horror series, as well as creator of the NBC series, Fear itself. A Life in the Cinema, his first book, was a collection of short stories and a screenplay based on one of the included stories and his first novel, Development Hell, was published by Cemetery Dance. He has also published short fiction in numerous books and magazines. He is currently prepping a feature film based on Stephen King's bestselling novel Bag of Bones. With an oversized trim size, two color printing throughout, and an extremely low print run, Riding the Bullet by Stephen King and Mick Garris was designed with the ultimate collectors in mind. Each edition featured a deluxe binding selected from the finest materials available. Limited Edition: 500 deluxe copies signed by Mick Garris and Alan M. Clark on a specially illustrated signature page, featuring the complete text of the Collector's Gift Edition but bound in a different deluxe material and housed in a custom-made traycase this being copy #PC of 500 produced. The traycase has a light edge bump else fine. THIS COPY IS IN MY POSSESSION AND WILL NORMALLY SHIP NEXT DAY.…
