Not nearly as good as his earlier volumes of short stories/novellas. In particular, "1922" was absolutely tedious, to the point that I didn't finish it and instead skipped on to "Big Driver." "1922" is pretty much just a spin on Poe's "The Tell-tale Heart", except that King takes something like 120 pages to do what Poe did in fewer than five. He was a much better writer when he was able (or willing) to produce stories that were succinct and left some things to our imaginations.
