Stephen King
In 1978, Stephen King introduced the world to the last gunslinger, Roland of Gilead. Nothing has been the same since. More than twenty years later, the quest for the Dark Tower continues to take readers on a wildly epic ride. Through parallel worlds and across time, Roland must brave desolate wastelands and endless deserts, drifting into the unimaginable and the familiar. A classic tale of colossal scope--crossing over terrain from "The Stand," "The Eyes of the Dragon," "Insomnia," "The Talisman," "Black House," "Hearts in Atlantis," "'Salem's Lot," and other familiar King haunts--the adventure takes hold with the turn of each page. And the tower awaits.... The Second Volume in the Epic Dark Tower Series... The Drawing of the Three While pursuing his quest for the Dark Tower through a world that is a nightmarishly distorted mirror image of our own, Roland is drawn through a mysterious door that brings him into contemporary America. Here he links forces with the defiant young Eddie Dean, and with the beautiful, brilliant, and brave Odetta Holmes, in a savage struggle against underworld evil and otherworldly enemies. Once again, Stephen King has masterfully interwoven dark, evocative fantasy and icy realism.

"I finished this book in a weekend and I enjoyed it a lot more than the first one. I am borrowing the books so I'm still reading from the same Spanish editorial but this book was better translated than the other. I liked the way the story mingles the timelines of the Gunslinger and the Three and it left me with a lot of questions in a good way. <br/>I am a bit skeptical about what's coming next since things tend to appear out of nowhere with no real explanation but heck, almost half of what happens in the story is like that so I better deal with it."
"Well on to book 3.....<br/><br/>I knew once I started this series I wouldn't want to put it down but now I'm beyond curious. How is all of this gonna play out... How will this crew of three defeat the msn in black or will they? Do we get to see Jake again? <br/><br/>Stephen King loves to leave you with questions at the end of his books and thank goodness there are several more books in this serious that may just answer that question. Or may just bring more that's the beauty of it. I won't know til I'm done.<br/>And that's the beauty of a great series!!!!"
"Quirky and original. Not the usual horror offering from Stephen King."
