I feel like the further I get into this series, the more it improves. The world building gets more crispy with each situation our ka-tet gets into, and with those challenges the real world stakes grow. We are now more steeped in Mid-World than NYC which is a PLUS, but I have a feeling that these NYC laden flashbacks will keep occurring to my dismay. Still doesn’t reach the heights of any of King’s one-off novels, but it is an excellent entry to a so-so story so far (you can probably tell I wasn’t the biggest fan of Gunslinger or Dot3).

King does it again with this absolute banger. Really enjoyed all of the character development while still getting some juicy plot development as well. His writing is just so easy to read.
