I'm not a King fan, but this series was great! The Green Mile represents the last walk taken by condemned prisoners. Is John Coffey a vicious murder of children, or a gentle giant wrongfully accused? Set in 1932, this story of murder, mystery and miracles is told from the point of view of a prison guard.

Great series. All six books are a great read!
As always Stephen King keeps us with our eyes glued to the pages.
Typical Steven King. Number 5 in the series.
I recommend this book to anyone
John Coffey's gift is going to be used to help a woman in torment. His time on earth is growing short.
