The Tribe is a motorcycle club heading home after committing a gruesome double homicide. The members are split about whether to head back to Las Vegas or to seek out another victim who they think needs a visit to recover their money. While stopping outside a roadside diner and having a heated discussion, they are overheard by a gas tanker driver. What follows is an action filled story and battle of apparent road rage and revenge......I almost didn't buy this book because it is a very short story (about 47 pages) but I am so glad I did. This story is one of the best short stories I have read in a long time. The writing style is simply outstanding and graphic both in the ghastly details of the murders and the road battle but also in the description of the events and area in which the action takes place. It is a story of troubled men taking out their anger and vengeance on each other in an all consuming rage.The book is also magnificently illustrated. I reviewed it on an iPad 3 and also the Kindle Fire and the graphics are beautifully done and really pop out of the screen. The illustrations were a very nice touch and add to the story's mental presentation to the reader. It was not overdone and it is an addition that we should see in other books sold for digital tablets to enhance the reading experience!This book is a brilliant collaboration between the father and son team of Stephen King and Joe Hill. It is easy to see Joe's contribution to the writing as the graphic descriptions and story line simply feels polished and perfectly done. I hope this team will produce more cooperative books of the same quality as I am hooked by the results of reading this story.I strongly recommend it as a very good book to read. It does contain graphic violence and language but that is to be expected in such a tale. I love the show "Sons of Anarchy" and I have seen every episode. This book reads like a storyline right out of the series. If you like that show you will not be disappointed!
