The Dark Tower Companion: A Guide to Stephen King's Epic Fantasy by Bev Vincent
2.0
It's Dark Tower related...I'm supposed to love this, and yet I don't. Unlike other books where the writing is poor or the story doesn't quite gel, this book is bad simply because it's too good. You're going to find out a lot of information here...the problem is, it's TOO MUCH information. The amount of info in this book is exhausting, and in my opinion, complete overkill. It includes in-depth looks at all of the books, graphic novels, video games, upcoming film adaptations, characters, geography of the book's setting, etc, etc, etc.
It's well and thoroughly researched, but in the end it just reads too much like a textbook to be really entertaining.
