If at his counsel I should turn asideInto that ominous tract which, all agree,Hides the Dark Tower. Yet acquiescinglyI did turn as he pointed: neither prideNor hope rekindling at the end descried,So much as gladness that some end might be. - Robert BrowningAnd so we come to the clearing at the end of the path.Stephen Kings epic poetic prose inspired by Brownings poem is a unique and troubling masterpiece of fantasy.Looking back over the seven principle books, from The Gunslinger first publishedIt took me longer than every other book in the series and I think thats because I really didnt want to finish it. It was so nice to have this book to go back to. It was so nice to say I was still working on the dark tower. But its over now and I can never again read the dark tower series for the first time, which is fine I suppose since everyone who has read it before knows that once we complete the journey, restarting it is only natural.I loved this series. I really did. If the point of books
The body was far smaller than the heart it had held. What a journey - for the characters as much as for the readers! In a way, it feels as if we had been on the road to the Dark Tower forever. All the more reason why saying goodbye is so hard.So this is the end.It started where the previous volume left off: Mordred is being born and things ... don't exactly go as Mia had hoped they would. Callahan and Jake are there - as are myriad servants of the Crimson King (including some vampires).Roland
(B+) 79% | GoodNotes: A memorable final hundred pages to a book and series that were highly imaginative but also drawn out and uneven.
So. I've been sitting here staring at this screen for about 2 hours after finishing The Dark Tower. It was pretty touch-and-go for a bit. I couldn't see much through the tears.But I'm back now. It's not like this is the first time I read the book. I had a book hangover then, also, but I think I'm recovering slightly better than that last time. I'm afraid I can't say ANYTHING about this book without going into spoiler territory. It's brilliant and it's epic, of course, and it keeps blowing my
It'll be your damnation, boy. You'll wear out a hundred pairs of boots on your way to hell.How does one even begin to review the conclusion to what I believe is one of the greatest series of all time? I simply cannot put into words what this series means to me and how much of an emotional rollercoaster this final book is. Its also really freakin hard to review any book in a series!If youre in any way invested in this series, the last book is pretty much 800+ pages of saying goodbye, which is
*sniff* Oh, you surprised me. Is it time for the review? Just a second. What? Crying? Me? Dont be ridiculous. I was just .uhchopping some onions..and Ive got a cold.then somebody broke into my kitchen and pepper sprayed me.I certainly wouldnt be shedding a few manly tears over a Stephen King novel, would I? Oh, fine. You spend almost twenty years reading this series and tell me you got through the conclusion without a lump in your throat. Liar. Roland and his posse of gunslingers have to wrap up
