This novella/long short story was inspired by Richard Matheson's Duel. Here, King and Hill have a biker gang called The Tribe who have just committed a double homicide over drug money. Led by Vince and made up of Vietnam vets, including Lemmy from Motorhead recreated here as an American, The Tribe has never gotten into murder or meth, but Vince was persuaded by his son, the newest member of the gang. Now they are riding the backroads of Arizona trying to put distance between themselves and the crime scene, but the semi barreling down the highway with them is the more immediate problem. ( ) Two masters at work. A story about a father and son written by a father and son. It is impossible to separate the two voices but I felt Joe Hill's influence in this story and it was better for it. As with all King the characters breathe and are vividly colorful. As with all Hill stories there is more story there than first appeared and it all makes sense in the surprising ending. Great illustrations made it even better. Um conto de suspense de prender a leitura do início ao fim. A forma com que a relação entre pai e filho se resolve (ou se dissolve) em poucas páginas é notável. Inclusive, chama a atenção o fato de a história se basear em tal relação problemática em um conto escrito justamente por pai e filho. O final é bem amarrado e resolve as diversas pontas que os autores foram deixando soltas ao longo do texto. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Inspired by Richard Matheson's classic "Duel," "Throttle," by Joe Hill and Stephen King, is a duel of a different kind, pitting a faceless trucker against a tribe of motorcycle outlaws in the simmering Nevada desert. Their battle is fought out on twenty miles of the most lonely road in the country, a place where the only thing worse than not knowing what you're up against, is slowing down . . .
