I feel like this book is gearing up for the others in the series. It is a lot of setting up the world and the characters' motivations and desires. Roland doesn't feel overly "there" in the world. It is kind of like he is in an in between place waiting for the other shoe to drop. Perhaps that is what is meant to be happening, if so, excellent writing.

I am excited to pick up the other books, I think there are seven? I think there is going to be a lot of epicness to come, but I am not quite sure where it is going to be. I am, however, excited to take that journey with Roland, the Man in Black, and everyone else.

I think the characters are well done, but I think I need to read more to really get to know them. but I can say I am excited to do so.

So, yeah. Overall, it was an okay book, but I am planning on reading more of them.
