I cruised through the end of this book, such an exciting read and great introduction of new characters for the series.

Acquired from my library, digital audiobook. It was a fine reading of the text.

Wow. I enjoyed this so much more than The Gunslinger (though I've already decided on a reread of The Gunslinger once I finish the series so my thoughts may change)

I won't go into spoilers but the book is split between three seperate parts (much as the title suggests) and I really enjoyed all of them but particularly the first Eddie story. Gosh, I'm finding this really difficult to discuss without mentioning what happens in parts 2 and 3 so I'll leave it there.

So, a fantastic read - probably a 4.5 stars for me. I'm actually going to read a non Dark Tower book next and will get into The Waste Lands after that - I'm really looking forward to it.

Once again a fantastic read from King and one where King's storytelling prowess is on full display, as he masterfully weaves together elements of fantasy, horror, and Western genres. The character development is exceptional, with each member of Roland's new group bringing a unique set of skills and personality quirks. The dynamic between the characters adds depth and emotional resonance to the narrative, making readers genuinely invested in their fates.
