6. OY...

I see you got the Wizard in Glass/DT book...personally, without much spoilers(if possible, claim spoiler in your post if you must), tell me what you thought of the series, in whole, from beginning to end?

[petronius]

8. Overall, I really enjoyed it...

The parts I enjoyed most were the flashbacks to Roland's past, especially the tale of his first mission with his friends, where he meets his first love. I was a bit less impressed with the later journey's to modern Earth, where they meet the famous author - it wasn't a dealbreaker for me, but it seemed out of place.

The ending worked for me - I liked the ambiguity of the Horn - but I would have appreciated a bit more explication on the larger picture...

(It's hard to say more than "I liked it, I'm glad I read it, and I'll probably read it again" without including semi-spoilers...)

[Broken_Hero]

9. sounds good to me

the ending...spoiler free...fit Rolands philosphy...to me at least, his thoughts on Ka', fit into the ending greatly. At first, I thought the writing in of the "famous" author was going to be rather...weak, and loaded with cheese, but I thought it was handled well...

Wizard and Glass(story of Roland essentially) was a good look into his past, and was one of my top reads in the series...I should read it again sometime...one of my wife's coworkers, has been stuck with Wizard in Glass for years, and we just let him borrow Wolves of the Calla, and my wife and I both told the guy, that he is lucky to be still stuck in the "adventure" of it all...

What I enjoyed the most was King implementing a lot of his other works into the DT series...the DT is worth reading again, to see just where his other novels tie in!...:)

10. Every third book?

Gah...that'd take all weekend. Are you talking the downstairs bookcases or the upstairs ones? All of 'em or just a few? Fiction or non? Poetry or prose?

And damn you...yours are organized. I tried to organize mine at one time...alphabetically by author and then alphabetically again.

Didn't last.

Mine are a jumbled mess. And my paperbacks are all double-shelved and there's NO rhyme or reason there.

[Broken_Hero]

11. okay ,just close your eyes...
