4.0

This book absolutely gets the ka-tet back on track of the quest for the Dark Tower. It is a bit of a side mission, helping the town escape the clutches of the terrible wolves, but there is much connection to the original quest that it doesn't feel out of place. One of my favorites of the series overall.

3.5 stars

while decidedly better than #4 this one was still ~200 pages over written and the pacing wasn’t great. the climactic finale made it all worth it though, and it sets up books #6 and #7 in ways that i am quite excited for.
