Blaze by Richard Bachman as read by Ron McLarty
I think this would’ve worked better as a novella rather than a full-fledged novel. It’s not that there’s a whole lot of padding, but there isn’t much of a story here either. Like with Godfather Part II, I found the flashback sequences to be much better than …
