Finally, after many hours of audio book listening when running, I finished the 7th and final book in the Dark Tower series. I loved it all! :applause

I think my favorite parts were the first half of the first book, the development of the Ka-tet, the part about Blaine, the part about Roland becoming a Gunslinger, and the part about Roland and Susan's time together. I thought the last book was really good too.

So the three books I think I dug the most were:


The Drawing of the Three
Wizard and Glass
The Wastelands

I liked the series as well.

Least favorite part? long pork.

Yeah, that part was not so pleasant... I didn't like it either.

It seemed to me that King might have been the most motivated in the middle of the series. The later books are good, but not quite as captivating as the middle books.

LOL!! I almost just beat you. I was closing in on it but had to return the very overdue final book a few weeks ago and have not gone back to check it out again yet. I was scared of the library policeman! :help
