i recently finished the series, and i loved it. most of it. wizard and glass, where they tell roland's backstory: boring as hell. it took me over a month to finish it, b/c i kept finding all these other books and things i wanted to read more, like the year-old issues of good housekeeping that this old lady puts in our mailbox.

i thought that king including himself in the series and giving himself such an important role was a little cocky, but this dude has written so many books and short stories that people just eat up i can forgive him for getting a case of the big head.

people call the ending lame, but i like it b/c there's no way i could have predicted it. it was sort of anticlimactic, but i spent so many months reading those 7 books that there was pretty much nothing he could come up with that would have surpassed the pleasure i had while reading them.
