skeleton crew or just the mist?
These past few days, that i've been with Yamila, i asked her to lend me a book from her way-more-than-huge bookshelf for me to read while she was working. I wanted something from King, and she automatically gave the this book called "The Mist" (La Niebla, in spanish). It includes a short novel and two other stories, and she had been insisting too much with it lately, so i took it and started to read it immediately.
I read the novelette and i really liked it, even if it was short, it was pretty scarry. The end surprised me a little bit; it was never explained the procedure of the mist and or the creatures in it, and the open ending was kind of expected, y'know?, like, you could see it coming that King wouldn't tell you what the fuck happened with them, which was actually cool ^^ it added to the mystery.
I started reading The Monkey yesterday (one of the two short tales included in the same book allong with Mrs. Todd Shortcut -or whatever the fuck is the title of that one xD-), but i had to leave it because i couldn't concentrate enough (was with my dad visiting one of his clients and like, i was in the same room listening to them making business, i couldn't really concentrate on my reading), so i'm probably gonna start reading it again later.
What kinda confuses me is the fact that, according to the first pages of the book, says that the original title of this book that included this novelette and the two short stories is called Skeleton Crew. Happens that, i have this small book called Historias Fantásticas in spanish that includes tales such as There are tigers, To Owen, The beach and many more short stories (really short, considering the length of the book...), and says that the original name is Skeleton Crew as well.
Anybody who read this care to explain what's going on? =S
