About this listen

 A lone man takes on the wheels of progress in a showdown of cataclysmic proportions. When a highway project puts him out of work and threatens to destroy his home, he has more than enough time on his hands to plot his revenge.

Driving his wife and friends away with his growing obsession, he pushes the powers-that-be to the limit, taking a stand against what he sees as a criminal act in progress. Building to a shattering climax, this is a suspenseful tale you won't soon forget.

Im not sure what I was expecting when I chose to listen Roadwork. I have never read or listened to a Bachman novel, and always assumed it would just be King with a darker tone. That is obviously quite far from the truth, and the Bachman books really should be considered their own entity.

Roadwork is a descent into depression, a story of losing everything, and more often than not, the futility of one mans defiance. Worth listening to, just be prepared for this to not be a tale of happy ever after

This aint the King your looking for
