I adore Roland, Jake, Eddie, Susannah, and Oy. I never want this to end. I feel like a part of their world. I even got to the point that I know who is talking by the tone of the narrator's voice. I love the way he voices Oy. So cute!! The story of Roland's first love Susan and his experience in ...

I'm in love with this series and these characters. This one has such a huge chunk about Roland's past that I started to feel a little drifty. It seemed like it was getting off topic, but I should have known better. The author connected it all and showed why it was important. Also, it made me fee...

Synopsis: In 1978, Stephen King introduced the world to the last gunslinger, Roland of Gilead. Nothing has been the same since. More than twenty years later, the quest for the Dark Tower continues to take readers on a wildly epic ride. Through parallel worlds and across time, Roland must brave deso...

This has been my least favorite of the series. The backstory that this book provides is crucial to better understand certain things, including Roland's character. I was impatient to get back to the second Ka-tet, which may have been the reason that this felt like a step down to me.Still an amazing s...

Wizard and Glass is the fourth book in Stephen King's Dark Tower septet, and it is the Romance Book. A story within a story, the book sees Roland telling his ka-tet a tale of the days before the world moved on. Roland is fourteen, and In-World is just beginning to fall to the forces of John Farson...

Every time I review another book in The Dark Tower series, I say, “This book is my favorite in the series.” This review is no exception. Book #4 is now my new favorite. In Wizard and Glass, we finally get to see some of Roland’s backstory. I’ve been waiting so long for this, and I was not disappoin...

Maybe not the continuing 'race' to the Dark Tower the fans were hoping for in 1996, but WOW: great background story! We finally get to learn more about Roland and his past; puts a lot of things in perspective. I can't wait for 'part 2' and finding out what happened to Cuthbert and Alain on their jou...

Wizard and Glass picks up where the last book left off, with our hero, Roland, and his unlikely band of followers escaping from one world and slipping into the next. And it is there that Roland tells them a story, one that details his discovery of something even more elusive than the Dark Tower: lov...

Slow moving, even boring in places. It's not that I don't like love stories, because I do, and this is a particularly good one - it's just that this is the wrong love story in the wrong place. Most of the novel is set before the fall of Gilead, when Roland is 14, and so that sense of a world gone wr...
