|
Several months have passed, and Roland’s two new tet-mates have become |
|
proficient gunslingers. Eddie Dean has given up heroin, and Odetta’s two |
|
selves have joined, becoming the stronger and more balanced personality of |
|
Susannah Dean. But while battling The Pusher in 1977 New York, Roland altered |
|
ka by saving the life of Jake Chambers, a boy who—in Roland’s where and |
|
when—has already died. Now Roland and Jake exist in different worlds, but they |
|
are joined by the same madness: the paradox of double memories. Roland, |
|
Susannah, and Eddie must draw Jake into Mid-World then follow the Path of the |
|
Beam all the way to the Dark Tower. But nothing is easy in Mid-World. Along |
|
the way our tet stumbles into the ruined city of Lud, and are caught between |
|
the warring gangs of the Pubes and the Grays. The only way out of Lud is to |
|
wake Blaine the Mono, an insane train that has a passion for riddling, and for |
|
suicidal journeys.</p> |

★★★★☆ |

|
<p>The very first book was mostly a backstory to the series.</p> |
|
<p>The second book was the first "in the story" of the series.</p> |
|
<p>This, the third, is mostly King going "Well, now I'm writer, I can write |
|
whatever I can". And so he does.</p> |
|
<p>The story flows nicely and a lot of things that you could feel King was |
|
holding back in the second story are not here. Whatever he things he can do, |
|
he does. So the story goes into larger arcs, deeper content and so on.</p> |
|
<p>The only downside is the ending. About 10% of book you feel like that "Oh |
|
shit, he's not going to defuse the bomb" or whatever happened in the old TV |
|
series and you can feel the "To be continued." coming.</p> |
|
<p>And "To be continued" comes.</p> |
