Wow, what a turn-around from book one!!!

Book one, I was bored to tears, barely made it through, and took over a week to read a measly 231 pages. This one was over 400 and I read it in days. Because it was actually entertaining, the characters were fleshed out (and were actually interesting), and the story wasn't repetitive and draggy.

Definitely will continue on with the series soon. ...more

This was interesting. Really need to pay attention with all the different worlds/time periods/players/personalities. I love Roland & Eddie together. They both push each other but have a strong bond growing. Verdict is still out on Detta/Odetta/Susannah, (whoever the hell she is!) I don't know much about this Dark Tower still but it's going to be interesting getting there! ...more

"We all die in time" the gunslinger said. "It's not just the world that moves on". He looked squarely at Eddie, his faded blue eyes almost the color of slate in this light. "But we will be magnificent."

"Even the damned love".

I loved this book in the series ~ Everything about it; the characters, the storyline, Everything.

Stephen King's imagination is like no othe ...more

Secondo capitolo della torre nera,nonché uno dei migliori libri di Stephen King in generale,la chiamata dei tre inizia sette ore dopo la conclusione del primo volume e mette in evidenza tutto lo sterminato potenziale della magna opus dell'autore,tra viaggi nel tempo e in dimensioni parallele,traffici di droga,follia e un'approfondimento dei personaggi e del mondo in cui agiscono meravigliosamente puntuale e sorprendente.
Lo stile di scrittura risulta molto più scorrevole del suo predecessore,tant ...more

It is weird being inside Stephen King's mind. These aren't really my favourite stories, just a little too much fantasy but they sure are memorable. I will continue the series because I like it enough to be invested in seeing it through.
Decent Read! ...more
