Lord of the Rings Meets The Good The Bad & The Ugly by SocietyofSpeculativeFictionBookclub |
| "The man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed." Stephen King's magnum opus drops you in the middle of the action and you have to discover the clues around the edges. It draws from many sources but tells an epic story. If you're looking for a long ride down the dusty trail to places you've never seen or experiences that you would have never thought you'd see put together, this series is for you. The Gunslinger will get you started down the road to the Dark Tower. Highly recommended for Stephen King fans and those who like their fantasy dark. |
