Topic	The Dark Tower series (by Stephen King) [SPOILERS]
Shablagoo 04/01/21 10:37:20 PM #6:	a-c-a-b posted... Enjoy. The Waste Lands is my favourite book of the series. Awesome! DanKiller7 posted... Read the first 2 in high school then the rest of the series few years later. A spin-off too, definitely my favorite book series. Too bad the movie was horrendous, an HBO or Netflix adaptation would be amazing. I actually kind of enjoyed the Elba-Mcconaughey film, even though as an adaptation it was terrible. It would be awesome if one of the streamers made a series, I agree. ScazarMeltex posted... Yeah that was me. Nice. Some general thoughts about the first 2 books off the top of my head: Man, Stephen King can really write an action sequence. Particularly in the first book ~~right at the start when he fights off and slaughters the town of crazy people, that was mindblowing to me. I dont think Ive ever read a better action scene; it felt like I was there.~~ In The Drawing of the Three I really could not stand the sections ~~written from Dettas point of view. Everything being said and just the way sentences were structured was so vile, it honestly made me feel gross every time we came back to her.~~ ~~Hated~~ ~~reading those parts.~~ The remarkable thing though is that King managed to somehow bring it together in the end ~~when her personalities did the fusion dance. I thought it was a beautiful finish to her characters arcs and a really nice ending that made going through all those Detta passages feel worth it.~~ --- "If you wanna grow your business you need to exploit more." ~Austin_Era_II "Out of those two?
