I read this on a long train ride and it certainly helped to pass the time. People under pressure in a base under seige is always a good bet for an absorbing drama. This 'novella' also shows how people react; bringing out the best and worst in them. Mrs Carmody is a particularly monstrous creation, rivalling anything outside the supermarket. Not sure about the ending though, but you will have to read this to make your own mind up. There is a motion picture of this book now, which I am looking forward to seeing (apparently with a different ending.) A recommended read.

And we're back on track! After the massive flashback segment in "Wizard and Glass" the real story of the series begins to drive forward once more, picking up soon after the conclusion of book four. This story is a little different from previous instalments. The journey towards the elusive Dark Tower slows as the team, King's own "fellowship", stop to help a town that anticipates a violent and devastating attack from the "wolves", a group of almost-men who may kill or abduct their children. There are many secrets in this book, all of which are revealed satisfactorily, and many of the mysteries surrounding Roland's world are also uncovered - although there are just as many new questions as there are answers. The writing ... Read More:

5.Interview with the Vampire (Vampire Chronicles) by: Anne Rice December 08, 1994

This book was amazing. I loved everything about it, how Anne Rice writes, how the characters develop and Louis is just so nice! For a vampire. I had seen the movie before I read this book, but the movie is nothing compared to the book. You actually feel as if you are going through Louis life with him as its so detailed. I am now reading the sequel The Vampire Lestat, and would highly recomend that book also, as you will see why Lestat is the way he is in 'Interview'. But would def read this again and recomend anyone to read this, not just vampire lovers.

Stephen King is one of the great story-tellers of the twentieth century, but he has always had difficulties with endings (think of the farce of the Stand, or the pathetic conclusion of It). It was with some trepidation, therefore, that I approached this final volume of the series. Before even starting it I thought I just hope he doesn't....But that was exactly what he did. The ending is the most predictacle and the weakest one imaginable. Please, if you have enjoyed the first six novels, don't read this one. It will just leave a bad taste in your mouth, and the feeling you have been wasting your time.

I love dark fairy tales and Neil Gaiman doesn't disappoint. Simple yet meaningful, suitable for all to dive into as deep as you dare.

wow this book is utterly brilliant - unbelievably well written - completely gripping and compulsively readable. i will be honest that i didn't expect great things after the slightly disappointing Gunslinger, but this 2nd volume in King's Magnum Opus just takes the piss. it is a million miles better than number 1. and has made me a Dark Tower fan in seconds. it is basically three doors and a story of drawing sidekicks out of them for the enigmatic hero Roland. These characters are amazing and colorful, the world's they come from and the scenes they get embroiled in are readable and gripping. King crafts characters better than most any other writer i know and this is no exception - the intros to every character are huge - and even minor characters ... Read More:

really awesome continuation of the Dark Tower series the action is hotting up and the tower is closer... This one is beautifully crafted and written yet again, full of interesting sidequests and shaped in a nice rounded narrative - there are things at the beginning that get solved at the end - everything that is introduced has a reason later on. its quite satisfying storytelling in that way. overall - i'm still well intrigued about what could possibly happen in the next books. i still wanna find out about Roland and i still want to know what the Dark Tower really means its a great series so far and i will soldier on. it aint hard wen the road is so interesting. this one is full of apocalypse and action, the return of Jake and a very ...

King's sixth book in the "Dark Tower" series picks up immediately where "Wolves of the Calla" left off, reinserting the reader into the world of the gunslinger and his travelling companions. They resume their quest for the Dark Tower with a great opening scene, and soon cutting to the absconded Susannah and her new passenger ... Things progress smoothly and very competently in this penultimate volume, a shorter story than many of its predeccessors and more focused for it. The writing is condensed but not neglectful of the characters or the scenarios, and has all the fluidity and poetry of the previous volumes, although sadly not to the extent of the wonderful "The Gunslinger". The novel benefits from the sense of movement and progress, ... Read More:
