Once again, Stephen King masterfully interweaves dark, evocative fantasy and icy realism, as his hero, Roland, the Last Gunslinger, pursues his quest for the Dark Tower. Roaming another world that is a nightmarishly distorted mirror image of our own, he is drawn through a mysterious door that brings him into 1980s America. Here he links forces with the defiant young Eddie Dean and with beautiful, brilliant and brave Odetta Holmes, in a savage struggle against underworld evil and otherworldly enemies. With a storytelling skill that is sheer magic, and with breathtaking boldness of imagination, Stephen King has risen to the peak of his power to create a compelling epic that is at once enigmatic and familiar...and always compulsively readable. from Internet Book List

But what I started from the first book, I had to move on to the second book and it took me a while to finished it. Yes, I took m...
Second volume of this saga is sooo much better. Better than the first volume and better on second read.Better than the first because it felt more grounded somehow. Despite the whole "magic doorway" thing, it was way less surreal than "The Gunslinger". The writing was more rounded too, and I connecte...
I liked this book better than the first one because I felt like it moved faster and was more exciting. But I did not like the narrator, Frank Muller. Looks like he narrates Book 3 & 4 as well. :( But I'm not giving up, maybe I'll get used to him.
Wow. I was interested with book one, but I couldn't fully connect to it for some reason. Now I'm more settled into what is happening. This book was awesome for me. I'm so into this universe now. It's epic. Stephen King just completely blows me away with his creativeness. I love his brain. I'm...
