How is it that Stephen King’s The Gunslinger wasn’t already done by now? While I personally think that maybe The Dark Tower ran out of steam eventually, the first one was brilliant. Western, magic, myth-making… good, tasty, and not bloated beyond all belief. Can’t wait to see it on the big screen.
And so, adieu to American Gods.
I actually thought The Dark Tower would have been good throughout if Song of Susanna and the Final book had been edited down to 1. I could have even, almost, swallowed the typical King downer ending if it had only been 1 book.
to date ive never finished the set. Wizard and Glass is as far as I’ve gotten. I always meant to finish, but just haven’t got around to it. So, Idris Elba is playing Roland. Thats interesting.
I know some people disagree. But Wolves of Calla is probably my favorite book in the series.

Yeah, “interesting” is the word I’d use for that casting. But apparently King liked the idea. So yay for him.
