Flight or Fright 17 Turbulent Tales Author:Stephen King (Editor), Bev Vincent (Editor) Stephen King hates to fly, and he and co-editor Bev Vincent would like to share their fear of flying with you. — Welcome to Flight or Fright, an anthology about all the things that can go horribly wrong when you’re suspended six miles in the air, hurtling through space at more than 500 mph, and sealed up in a metal tube (like&mdash... more »;gulp!—a coffin) with hundreds of strangers. Here are all the ways your trip into the friendly skies can turn into a nightmare, including some we’ll bet you’ve never thought of before... but now you will the next time you walk down the jetway and place your fate in the hands of a total stranger.
