I'm not a King fan, but this series was great! The Green Mile represents the last walk taken by condemned prisoners. Is John Coffey a vicious murder of children, or a gentle giant wrongfully accused? Set in 1932, this story of murder, mystery and miracles is told from the point of view of a prison guard.

This is the first volume of the story of John Coffey who was caught with two dead children in his arms. He is not an ordinary man. After reading it, I couldn't wait for the next volume.

The beginning of the story where John Coffey gains insight into his life in prison. Very good book

I've always loved Stephen King's stories, but also had a difficult time getting thru his books because of the detail he always puts in them...so I usually wait for the movie versions, which I did in this case too. So far, the story is following the movie to a tee and hasn't dragged or become bogged down by details. I'm impressed.

Sister's are killed in the depression era and the killer does not even understand their brutal deaths. This story is told from the perspective of the death row superintendent as he sits in a nursing home.
