The legendary novel of science-fiction horror: âThe author who influenced me the most as a writer was Richard Mathesonâ (Stephen King).  After he is exposed to a radioactive cloud, Scott Carey finds himself shrinking, slowly, day-by-day, inch-by-inch. Scott once had a normal, everyday existence as a husband and father, but as time passes, he becomes a national spectacle, something worthy of newspaper headlines. As Carey shrinks, smaller and smaller, his family become giants, more and more unreachable, and even the family cat becomes a predatory menace. In this world of disproportion, increasingly perilous with each passing day, Scott struggles to surviveâand is pushed to the very limits of fear and existence . . .  Adapted into the Hugo Awardâwinning film The Incredible Shrinking Man, this is a classic by the author of I Am Legend and other renowned worksâa master of imagination whom Ray Bradbury called âone of the most important writers of the twentieth century.â  âA classic of suspense as poignant as it is frighteningâa mix that only Richard Matheson could pull off.â âDean Koontz |
