From the very moment I opened this book, I knew I was going to like it. Immediately, I was drawn into the world that King was trying to paint. I wasn’t sure if I was going to like the rest of the Gunslinger Series based upon the first book (let’s be honest, the book is rather boring and, at first, c...
I enjoyed this second book much better than the first one. I'm still confused though about the thing about the Dark Tower, etc but at least I understand the events in this one better than the first one.

This book wasn't terrible, it just wasn't great. It was far better ...

I didn't make it very far before I decided I was too confused and wasting my time.I decided to give ...
This is a re-read for me a couple times over. This time I listened to the audio version read by Frank Muller, which I enjoyed immensely. I didn't care for Muller's reading much in The Gunslinger, but this time around, he has really grown on me. Perhaps it was due to the fact that there are so many m...
