Stephen King’s first attempt at writing dystopian fantasy ends up as a very promising but disjointed and ultimately unsatisfying piece, which feels more like a prologue to something than a self-contained story. It sure got me interested in the Dark Tower, but it does’t stand well by itself.
| Positive: | Negative: |
| Eloquent, descriptive prose | Nothing really that significant seems to happen |
| Fascinating, dark dystopian wild west like setting | Feels more like a prologue to Dark Tower than a self-contained story |
