One of the best of Stephen King, not only in the Dark Tower series but I believe the rest of this novels ever made. (I have yet to read his other dark towel novels first though so I am prepared and happy to be proven wrong by Stephen King)

I do suggest if you find the first book(Volume 1: The gunslinger) a bit of slow story, do advice to be patient enough to read through book 1 so you can reach book two where you will find the real voice of whole series. Even Stephen King recommended this himself in the intro of Volume 1. Or do what I did just skip to book 2 and realize how good it is (I was brave enough to do so because I watched the Dark tower movie adaptation first before reading any of the books)

I truly cant guess what would be appearing or who would be appearing in all of the doors which sets up mystery and tension a lot. Eddie surprisngly is one of the most redeemable and lovable character of all even though I didnt like him at first because he was or still is a junkie. (Never took drugs in my life before) Odetta and Detta and Susannah is the most unexpectedly plot twist I got as well. If the scenes are not action packed almost all scenes are tense and dark. I do think now Stephen King is the forefounder or the father of the multiverse concept. He was writing about it before even Marvel made it famous
