What a horrible way to start a series. I could only get to page a 110 before I decided I didn't want to waste my tme with this book. I had heard before that this book wasn't as good as the actual series but... I was on page 110 an I still didn't know what the purpose of the character was, why he was following the black man or what the heck was going on with the dead people who weren't dead.

I really want to want to read this series but it is too fantasy and strange for me. One and done.

God, so cool. I love how real the world feels and as much as it would be properly hard to live there, I wouldn't hesitate to follow Roland through a doorway to his world.

Every female character was defined in terms of sex or body shape, and I had enough of it.
