" I will not try to add to any previous reviews. What I will add, is that beside the fact King took so long to finish the series, and seemed to rush it, finally, was partly due to his being hit by a van while jogging. If you are a TRUE fan of Sai King, find another related tale in the epic tv mini-series 'Kingdom Hospital'. "

" The Dark Tower, written by Stephen King and narrated by George Guidall is the last book in the Gun Slinger series. This is Mr. King's Opus Magnum and many of his other books owe it's origin to this masterpiece. Start at book number one (the gunslinger) and listen or read them all. It is fantastic and well worth the time. George Guidall is a fantastic narrator of this book. The ending is a complete surprise and absolutely perfect!

" Reading this series to the end still make my eyes water. The emotions that the characters feel towards eachother after this much time and experience together is very strong. I recall the first time reading it I was angry with the author for the ending, but every reading since I've enjoyed it more and more. A perfect ending to Stephen King's epic story. "

" These books are just crazy! It's so complicated to decide how I feel about them. It took me awhile to get into them. But by the middle i was already invested in the characters, by the end i was crying for certain things, and was able to actually really understand the language. The ending was interesting, and a little fucked up. but i do feel like it made sense for this story. I don't think i would ever read this series again.. at least not for a LONG time. But overall I am happy with it. "

" !!!!I can't even begin to say how much I liked this book!A really beautiful ending, heartbreaking and dark with glimpses of hope and light.This was the perfect ending in my opinion and it left me flabbergasted.I keep wondering if Roland will finally make it to the real essence of the tower.Or it is not simply his ka? I am sure someday he will find true salvation.At this point I feel like Suzanne betrayed Roland and the spirit of ka-tet when she decided to leave Roland to finish his journey alone.While the other members of the ka-tet were true to their goal and gave their lives to it she just abandoned the cause.I am a little pissed-of!On the other hand the chapter Suzanne in New York was really touching and romantic.After having completed the series I am a little sad that this journey has ended but I am glad I have made it and enjoyed it.Respects to Sai King!!!!!

" I just now finished this breathtakingly epic series and I leave it with nothing but respect. The ending and the tragic message that goes along with it is undoubtedly one of the worst human conditions... rushing through every day, blindly, towards some end goal and then when it is reached the entire journey is forgotten. The best part of this epic literary piece of genius is that he made us love and hate and cry along with and be angry at and root for so many different wonderful characters. That is what I wanted out of this series all along. the journey. The people hating the ending want that finale that eclipses all else... and what exactly is that... Roland's death in an epic battle? Everyone returning from the grave to be a big happy ka-tet again? There was no other way around this story than self examination.... if you need some orgasmic ending that bad than you are exactly what the message of this series is referring to. Just appreciate it. Be engrossed, enthralled, in love with every moment of the lives of some of the best characters ever created. Hats off to you Sai King.... you most certainly are Gan to me. "

" As in book 6, some of the material is unnecessary or irritating, but there are also countless stunning and perfectly crafted moments. In the end, King manages to bring it all together into as much of a close as you can hope for in a series with such a rambling and epic scope. "

" It was a long journey, but the Dark Tower was finally reached. Lots of surprises and loss and not the happily ever after ending you would've wanted, but you pretty much figured you were never going to get one of those, with Roland his is ka-tet. After 20+ years, I can finally put this story to rest. "

" Interesting story. Like the whole concept of a character being established and then going into a time or place in which he is not from and being auckward, but yet having great skills and knowledge to contribute to that era. Nice story. Was not predictable in my opinion.

" A great follow-up to Stephen King's the gunslinger, The Drawing of the Three throws its super-heroic antihero through the ringer, opening with a mutilation and ending with a character death, this is a gritty, mind-bending and wholly riveting western-fantasy adventure.
