Discussion: March - The Gunslinger
posts: 13 views: 312 last post: 11 years ago
back to group
March's book will be The Gunslinger. Read it, reread it, preach it on the street corner.
March really snuck up on me but the group read of The Gunslinger will begin on Saturday, March 1st.
I've got my copy ready!
Just picked up my copy! Excited!
Hey Dan, are we reading a certain amount of pages at a time, or per week, or? I just want to make sure I stick with all of you :).
I wasn't planning a specific pace. We can all chime in when we feel like it, I guess.
Day One and I've made it to The Way Station (aka Chapter Two). :)

I don't recall ever reading this book quite this fast. Anywho, I'm reading the expanded edition for the first time, and I can't remember what was here before and what wasn't. Of course, the last time I read this one was in 2004 (has it been TEN YEARS!?), When King finally finished the series, I went back and read them all in order.

Oh, and one more thing, I'll be throwing THE WIND THROUGH THE KEYHOLE in between THE WASTE LANDS and WIZARD AND GLASS because King says that, technically, that book is book 3.5 in the series. I haven't read it, so I have no idea where it fits in.

Talk to you guys tomorrow. :)
I'm probably skipping Wind Through the Keyhole.
I figured. I'm only tossing it in because I haven't read it yet.
I haven't started yet, I had some review books I felt like I had to read before, but after those, I'll start.
It will be the first time I read this series, but I'm looking forward to it!
Popping in to say that this book gets better every time I read it. This is one of those books, like THE HOBBIT, that feel like a first read-through no matter how many times I read it.

Today's first update: I've made it to The Oracle and the Mountain, and am taking a break for lunch. I probably won't stop today until I hit The Slow Mutants.
I've reached The Slow Mutants, in my ravaged paperback from 2004 that's page 203, so I figure I'll stop for today.

Side note: I remember being much more scared of the Oracle when I read this as a teenager. I can't remember how I felt about her during my 2004 reread...
I was mistaken in an earlier post. THE WIND THROUGH THE KEYHOLE is book 4.5, not 3.5.
Need help?
