I've always been captured by the horror and suspense and creativity of King. Whether it be in fantasy mode or classic science fiction mixed with modern day horror. King rarely disappoints me...evening for the pure pleasure of reading versus picking up a chew worthy classic.
King's "Dark Tower" series continues to catch my eye and seems to draw with it a cult-like following. Therefore, I picked up a copy of "The Gunslinger".
I can see where readers are charmed by this book series. It gives one a feeling of a western, but with the stunning intensity of a modern classic.
The book is full of questions as Roland "the last gunslinger" pursues a dark figure. Clearly, he is chasing evil and suspense builds for a face off as King plays a mind game of cat and mouse with the reader.
Worth a read for a fantasy fan. A MUST if you are a Stephen King fan. Book one in the series complete!
