I read the first book in this series (The Gunslinger) over a decade ago now. I didn't really care for it, but there were things about it that I did like, and the fans of this series are very vocal in their praise of it, and there is a possible new tv show in the works for it. So I thought I'd try to continue on.
I'm not sure how I feel about this one. At times it is thrilling, but at other times I find it to be either a slog or just straight up off-putting. The story of "edgy" King that I don't love tends to rear his head a fair bit.
I was leaning towards a 2/5 on this, but the last section of the book is a string of tense action scenes that had me captivated.
I'm not super eager to contine the series, but I probably will get around to it in under a decade this time.
