About

Inch by inch, day by day, Scott Carey is getting smaller. Once an unremarkable husband and father, Scott finds himself shrinking with no end in sight. His wife and family turn into unreachable giants, the family cat becomes a predatory menace, and Scott must struggle to survive in a world that seems to be growing ever larger and more perilous – until he faces the ultimate limits of fear and existence.

"Mathesons legendary 1956 sci-fi tale…is beautifully realized by Yuri Rasovskys memorable reading. Enthusiastic and compelling, Rasovsky seems predisposed to the suspense masters style of writing. Capturing the brilliant mix of everyday life and extraordinary horrors that Matheson is so revered for creating, Rasovsky reads with a dry, cool wit that breathes new life into this classic tale.

Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Rasovsky's malleable voice gets larger and smaller as the novel flits between Carey's past and present, and his dramatic pacing and facility with regional accents enhance this audiobook. "

"A horror story if ever there was one…a great adventure story-it is certainly one of that select handful that I have given to people, envying them the experience of the first reading."
Stephen King
