They aren't easy to read due to the strangeness of the crab creatures and such anyway, then he decides to continue...argh!

Originally Posted By jasmine7 <<If your going through the whole Dark Tower series be aware that Wizard and Glass is widely thought to be the worst of them all.<< Huh. . . weird, it's one of my favorites of the series (then again, I started with #3 in high school & then read the whole series in order last year). And speaking of Stephen King, I'm about to start On Writing. I'm hoping it can help me with my own fiction.

I will be starting starting it tomorrow. I have been a SK fan since the 70s, but I have avoided the Dark Tower Series for some unknown reason. I think the title of the first one just didn't reall interest me. Not really into westerns, so a book called The Gunslinger just didn't really do it for me. But I have to admit that now that I am 3 books in, I am enjoying the story. I really liked Duma Key. I also really like Lisey's Story. I think Lisey's Story is as close to a love story as King can get. I also just bought Bag of Bones.
Originally Posted By MissCandice My sister borrowed Duma Key months ago and hasn't returned it, so I have not read it yet. My boss did bring in Breaking Dawn so I have that to read, whoohoo!
Originally Posted By Autopia Deb >>>I think Lisey's Story is as close to a love story as King can get.<<< True, it's very sweet, in a creepy dark sort of way, lol. I remember enjoying Bag of Bones quite a lot. There was a time there starting with Tommy Knockers for me where SK was getting almost unreadable. But the last 10 years or so most of his stuff has been just as good as his early works.
