The Gunslinger (The Dark Tower, Book 1)

Summary: Way to weird
Review: There have only been a few books that i never finished, but the Dunslinger was one of them. It was just so weird. King never told you what was happening. it's kinda like if you go into a movie halfway though it. Especially a fantasy one. I never got into it. i had no idea what was happening. read IT instead.

Summary: There's nothing like a walk in the desert
Review: This book is literally about someone walking across the desert - and is strangely captivating. Granted, this is no ordinary individual as the "constant reader" is introduced to a character that many have come to adore - Roland, the gunslinger. This series is difficult to describe - part western, part science fiction, alternative universe, fantasy, epic - where none of these categories does justice to the magnitude of the Dark Tower series.

This book should also have a warning sticker "Do not start, unless you are ready to become engrossed by the full series" - it's tough to stop once you've started your own journey to the Dark Tower.
