I couldn't put it down and felt drawn right into that world along with Eddie Dean. I still haven't finished my second reading of Book 7, but I'm getting there. About 90% done and I think I'm gonna shut this laptop down and step into stride with Roland. Dying to get to the end again, even though I know how disappointed I'll be.<br /><br />Go then, there are other worlds than these. :)Very Josiehttp://www.veryjosie.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8025049.post-53881144062531816592012-02-09T11:16:25.955-08:002012-02-09T11:16:25.955-08:00Eddie Dean is your crack of choice - I get it :-PEddie Dean is your crack of choice - I get it :-Pgrrouchiehttp://grrouchie.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8025049.post-28220134242291653472012-02-09T11:16:22.306-08:002012-02-09T11:16:22.306-08:00Awesome books.

Thx. My two favorites were The Talisman and The Stand. Read both many times. If funny because I'm not a big reader but started reading his books after my college english teacher forbid anyone from doing a report on his books. She said they were trash so I just had to read one and was hooked from there. <br /> BTW I'm lvpokerplyr.

The 2nd was Blackhouse but I don't remember it. Still have to read My Pretty Pony but I'm afraid to ruin the book. Talisman kinda reminds me of the Tower series with a better ending. I hated how the series ended although I know alot of his readers like it. Really hated that he killed Oy too.Tatudenoreply@blogger.com
