Dark Tower Series
haziegirl:
Well my sister suggested over the summer that I read the Dark Tower series, by Stephen King, and when I moved back in at school, I started reading it. I'm currently on the 4th book, and I find it pretty interesting, but not much different from your average fantasy/sci fi/end of the world type series. Good vs Evil sort of thing. But still pretty cool. It's the first ever Stephen King I've ever read.
Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone else had read the Dark Tower series, or if you're currently reading it. And if so, what are your thoughts?
Cartilage Head:
I read and finished it a few years back. It's pretty good, but the ending of the entire series is... iffy.
Anyway, I'm suprisedyou found it so routine.. I found it very unconventional. Of course, you aren't that far into the series yet.
Alarra:
I think it's a great series personally. My favorite book is actually the fourth one.
haziegirl:
well I think within the overall quest, it's original. I think the idea of writing a series of books that kind of explains the whole cosmic balance, and what not, is over done.
But I really do like the series so far. I am only about halfway, so you're right, I don't have much to base my opinion on. But I'm enjoying it. The first two books really kept me entertained... intrigued... I read through those pretty quickly. The third book was a bit harder to get through, in my opinion. I even thought about taking a break from the series, which generally translates into not finishing it, for me.
So far the fourth book seems pretty good. I think now, I just need to find a nice quiet place I can read. My dorm room isn't really providing me with a good reading environment at this point in time.

Do you mean the ending you're encouraged to stop at or the one you get if you keep reading?
