The Monkey
Enjoyed this one. Imagine what curiosity shop this creature might have come.
Cain Rose Up
An alright school shooter narrative I might have to reread, honestly. brief blur of memory.
Mrs Todd's Shortcut
Loved this one. "There are holes right in the middle of things." I like the idea of traveling in-betweens.
The Jaunt
Incredible. "It's eternity in there." I imagine Ray Bradbury would have been proud.

The Mist was very good. I like to think King didn't expand this into something tome-like 'cause he stuck true to an interpretation: this kind of situation wouldn't fizzle but blow up and over, quick and tragic. An (un)natural disaster provoking a conglomeration of natural responses in a pressure cooker. Without his usual usage of "big-voice" narrator to provide context, the claustrophobic POV is maximally effective.
