Oh, this book.I love this book for many reasons. I think Cuthbert, if he were in the series more, would definitely be my favorite character. And I love Alain's staid, calm demeanor (and it's interesting to me that while both Susannah and Jake have aspects of his character neither is really like Alai...
September, 2012: All right. I've had a few glasses of wine, and I finally feel ready to talk about why I so very much HATE THIS FUCKING BOOK. Please, don't get me wrong. I'm a HUGE Tower Junkie. By the time I got this book, I'd already read and re-read the first three more times than I cou...

What an amazing (and surprisingly romantic) story within a story. There was one passage that felt a bit too long but other than ...
While I had high hopes for this volume of the gunslinger saga I do feel a little let down. First I'd like to cover why I liked the book.One of the main thing's I liked is that King took this one out of the realm of horror and placed it in a more realistic albeit fantastical one. I was happy to see i...
