i'm finally starting to get why this series is so beloved. big improvement over the first book for me, and a lot of cool concepts in here. hoping the next one has a lil more flagg, i miss him dearly
bonus dbd section: jack mort is the only real option for a killer from this book specifically, which is a bit lame. flagg's the real best option, which goes for most things. eddie is the easy pick for survivor, but roland would be funny to see running from legion or something dumb like that. make the beach the map and you've got a banger(?) chapter

I read this book so long ago now that I can't even remember when it was (1990?). At the time I thought it was absolutely amazing even though it's not my typical genre. I plan to re-read this book (as well as The Gunslinger) so that I can finish out what there is so far of the series. I hope I enjoy it as much as I did those many years ago.

A good sequel. It deepened my love of the characters and the world. Some parts I look back and wonder "what did I read?", and on the whole it advanced the story, but the Tower and the climax are clearly far, far in the distance.
