Reviews

[Leonard Pierce · Rating 2 out of 5]

I dunno what more I can say about this one that I didn't already say about Volume I, other than that I'm the chump who bought it, so how much is my opinion worth, really?

[Pam · Rating 2 out of 5]

I'm sorry, but this book was less than useful, because of the way it was organized. Get Bev Vincent's Road to the Dark Tower if you want to make sense of the Dark Tower series.
