About this listen
"You're a firestarter honey.... just one big zippo lighter." A year ago, he was an upstanding instructor of English at Harrison State College. Now Andy is on the run with his daughter, a pigtailed girl named Charlie. A girl with an unimaginably terrifying gift. A gift which could be useful to corrupt authorities. Soon Charlie will be caught up in the menace of a fateful drug experiment and a sinister government ploy….
Let the listener beware: Firestarter is Stephen King at his most mesmerising…. and menacing.

Perfectly fine and scratches that King itch
It’s not one of King’s best books, but there’s enough here to keep you interested. The reading is perfectly serviceable.

Fab
This was one of the very first SK books I read 34 years ago. Forgot how good it was. Well narrated, full of twists and turns.

Great
This is a great book. The narrator reads well and helps to bring the story to life. It gets exciting in parts and overall is an interesting concept for a novel. It didn't grab me as quickly as some of his novels do, but we'll with reading.

Great story, great narrator. I think it's one of my favourite Stephen King stories - and there are so many good ones.

Engaging listen
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audiobook, and felt the pacing and cadence of the narrator was exactly how it needed to be told. However on the story side, I did find it very long throughout the middle in certain aspects and would’ve preferred to skim read on paper! I do recommend this audiobook overall

John Rainbird
Great characters with a fairly compelling story. In a world of box set series with twists and turns it can feel a little generic but the writing and dialogue is, as always, top notch.
