Wow. I was kinda afraid that this, being the first of the new Dark Tower books wouldnt have the magic of the previous ones, especially the last one. Boy, I couldnt have been more wrong. This one is fantastic, in all the connotations of the word.
Excellent book from an excellent series!

Another good, solid King read. Well written, characters fleshed out more. Liked the pop culture references, showing how/where the Gunslingers' world crosses over with ours. Will have to reread some other King novels that use the same characters!

This is my favorite book from the Dark Tower series so far! The ka-tet - Roland, Eddie, Susannah, Jake and Oy - are still on their quest which leads them through Calla Bryn Sturgis when they realize that they are being followed at a distance. It doesn't take long for their suitors to catch up with them. It turns out that they are locals, joined by Father Callahan who crossed over from New York a long time ago, and they have come to ask the gunslingers for help. But that isn't everything that they have going on: Additionally, Eddie and Jake travel to New York in their dreams, going to to-dash, which leads them back to the bookstore Jake visited and that seems intimately connected with The Dark Tower. Looking forward to the next book because I HAVE to know what's happened to Susannah!
The Dark Tower is an excellent series!
