Could not put it down... searched madly for the next book while on a business trip, even though I knew it was waiting for me at home... in some cruel joke, all the bookstores I searched had every book except for the third...

Titulo: La llegada de los tres [The Dark Tower #2]
Autor: Stephen King
Motivo de lectura: #StephenKingChallenge
Lectura / Relectura: Relectura
Mi edicion: Tapa dura, 540 paginas, Plaza & Janes
Puntuacion: 4/5
La diferencia entre este volumen y el primer volumen es abismal.
En esta segunda entrega la accion es moneda corriente, y no hay tiempo para descansar.
Encuentro cierta similitud en la dinamica entre Roland y Eddie, mientras Eddie es un Roland siente la misma compulsion por Ambos se congregan por una sed inagotable, cada uno por su tema, pero con muchos puntos en comun.
Durante la trama iremos encontrando otros personajes, donde basicamente King nos ofrece un abanico de personas con serios problemas de salud mental, y la interaccion entre ellos se basa en "hacemos lo que podemos, cuando podemos".
Realmente no me quiero extender en esta reseña, experimenten a King sin practicamente saber nada, es lo mejor, la accion, la no accion, las referencias, los dialogos, las interacciones, definitivamente vale la pena.

The concept of the doors was my favorite part of this book. I liked it a lot more than the first book, The Gunslinger, and I think it was because of that clash of personalities and times/places. I’ll say no more except that the characters make this series more interesting than just the main two or three that appear in the first boom.

King definitely delivered on a more complete story with this one and just like with the first one, I thoroughly enjoyed this one. "Lobstrosities" being one of my favorite words in a book, ever. Detta made me lol almost every time. While the story was fun and had a much stronger narrative it pretty much leaves all the same questions as the first which I kept finding to be frustrating. I did not expect this story to be so contained to one premise. Also gotta say that I HATE the Phil Hale illustrations. Those really are the only detractions I have and out of the pure enjoyment I had reading I feel I should be rating higher but I'm all too aware that it could've been slightly better.

This is a five star read for me. I loved this book. I have been circling starting the Dark Tower for years but was intimidated by it. I really didn’t know what to expect. Well, it totally subverted my expectations in the best way possible. What Stephen King did with this story was amazing. I can’t wait to read The Waste Lands!
