Summary: There are Other Worlds than These....
Comment: ...The truth of the thing spoken by the boy,Jake. Our Gunslinger, Roland, injured by the Lobstrosities struggles and hallucinates his way down the long beach of his world to a strange door. Credit to Huxley here where it is due. A Door of perception. THE Door for Roland. It's where the rubber meets the road for the true journey to the Dark Tower. The imagery here is superb. Stephen King leads us into a long, strange trip with the Gunslinger rattling around in the heads of dope-smugglers, schizophrenics, psychopaths... what all else? Despite his weakened, even dying condition our hero perseveres and brings a crew of unlikelies together for what I feel will be a hell of a journey. The desolation of Rolands world... whatever the hell happened to it.. is highlighted by the tales of surviving high-tech gadgets from the world past. Read this book... Detta Walker and Odetta Holmes-Good God- Eddie, Every character in this installment of THE DARK TOWER is crippled, even to Roland whose tools of the trade, his bullets, his hands and his wits are ruined, addled or brutally ravaged. Shuffle and Shift... Take Heart, Constant Reader... SK manages to heal a lot in this offering, but he leaves us wanting. REALLY BAD!!!! Keep it up, my Friend. See You Soon?

Summary: (As Comic Guy from the Simpsons might say) Best Book Ever!
Comment: Wow! I've read all four of the Dark Tower series, and this one is by far the best. While it's amount of action is not on par with The Wastelands or Wizard and Glass, King's brilliant story telling has done it again. His dark, dying world that is the only home to the Dark Tower, a safety pin that the multiverse is held together by, tells of a kind of Knight called a Gunslinger who is part John Wayne part Lancelot. The first installment throws you into an odd world, and tells Roland of the 'Drawing' he must make. The second installment really sets the tone of darkness and despair as Roland faces more hardships than any man could or should take. Visiting the minds of a New York Junkie in the Eighties, a crippled schizophrenic, and a murdering sociopath, Roland discovers the travelers that will take him on his quest to the dark tower. This book is by far the best, and I recommend it to anyone who can read. Seriously. Even those not fan of sci fi, fantasy, or horror.

Summary: Best book of the series so far
Comment: I really loved this book. The pace of the book is perfect. This book is the start of Roland's journey and the piecing together of his ka-tet. You never know what King is going to do with these characters, he takes them on a journey that they have to put their faith in Roland a man from a world much different than theirs. This book starts off where the last book ended and it puts Roland in an almost impossible situation right off which leads to incredible tension throughout the whole book because you don't know if the hero of the books is going to make it. This book starts to answer some of the questions that you may have after reading "The Gunslinger" but still leaves a lot unanswered. I can't say enough about this book, if you liked the gunslinger even a little bit you should continue with the story because reading this book is definitely worth it.
