The Gunslinger

***tekniqu3*** · September 11th, 2004

i recently got the first book in the dark tower series "The Dark Tower I : The Gunslinger" and if anyone has read it, i wanted to ask if i should just go ahead and read it b/c ive never read any of stephen kings books before. So im basicly asking if ill turn out liking it even more if i read it without reading "The Stand" or any of his recent books.

Well, I have never read it but why not give it a try? Always is good to try new books.

READ THEM READ THEM READ THEM READ THEM!!!!!!!

It's a very different style of King, the books are fantasy rather than horror, but personally I think they're the best books he's ever written. By the way 'The Dark Tower VII: The Dark Tower' is being released in about a week, i just pre-ordered it from Amazn... me so happy.

In case you were curious, the best books in the series are probably 'The Dark Tower III: The Waste Lands' and 'The Dark Tower IV: Wizard and Glass'.

Ya i heard this is one of King's best work yet and that the last one in the series is coming out. I already started reading it and in only 4 chapters i already got addicted to it. I LOVE rolands character, hes such a badass and will kill anyone who gets in his way
