"The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed." Stephen King
One of the most perfect shortest stories ever written, shame there were no sequels
Personally I think the first three novels are very strong and the fourth a good prequel too. It goes off the rails after that one though, like a crazy chu chu train so to speak.
I like them as standalone King stories, but hated how he tried to marry all his works (and others works...) into his ill-defined ego-centric universe.
I liked the last chapter of the last book as a continuation of the Gunslinger
I didn't mind the connection between other books all that much, but the self-insertion, Dr. Dooms and Harry Potter snitches were a bit much and almost felt like parody.
don't forget spiderman!
I don't remember any Spiderman references, unless you're thinking of Mordred.
was that the spider boy at the end, who added nothing to the overall plot?
Yeah, so I'm not the only one who thought that about spider boy. Fucking waste of a character that had a lot of buildup.
Oh yup.
