The Gunslinger

The Gunslinger (Dark Tower 1) The Gunslinger by Stephen King


My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is the first book by Stephen King that I have actually read all the way through. I have started a few of his other books before (The Tommyknockers, The Stand), but he just was not able to keep my attention. This book was different though. I enjoyed it for what it was... Actually, I'm still not sure what happened, but it was intriguing enough to keep me guessing about what was going to come next as the Gunslinger chased the man in black across the desert and underneath mountains. The action in the novel was well paced to keep the story moving and interesting although I can't really say that the characters left a lasting impact on me.

All in all, it was a good book. I am not sure I will read the rest of the series though.
