Different Seasons: Audiobooks in Order
Stephen King’s Different Seasons occupies unusual territory: shorter works gathered under one banner, each substantial enough to stand alone in audio. Our catalogue holds the second entry, The Body, a 6 hour and 31 minute listen that has drawn 687 ratings at a 4.6 average, numbers that speak of a story listeners return to and recommend. King at this concentrated length is a different kind of pleasure.

Why listen to Different Seasons?
The casting here is a genuine draw: Wil Wheaton narrates The Body, and the pairing of his voice with King’s storytelling has clearly worked for the hundreds of listeners behind that 4.6 average. At six and a half hours, this is King you can finish in a weekend, which makes it a superb entry point for anyone daunted by his heavyweight novels.Start with The Body without worrying about sequence. Although it sits second in the Different Seasons set, the stories stand alone, so nothing is lost by beginning here.It suits King devotees, newcomers wanting a manageable introduction, and listeners who appreciate character-driven storytelling; the Crime and Thriller shelf it sits on tells you the register to expect rather than promising outright horror.
Clara’s verdict
★★★★★ 4.5/5
No hedging required this time. With 687 ratings averaging 4.6, The Body carries the most convincing evidence of any entry in this batch, and the combination of Stephen King’s name and Wil Wheaton’s narration goes a long way to explaining why. Six and a half hours is precisely the right size for this kind of intense, focused storytelling. If the rest of the Different Seasons audiobooks reach this standard, the set deserves a place in any serious listening library. Firmly recommended.
