Title: Please help me find the plot.
Product review: Although I have thorougly enjoyed the series so far, I feel that Mr King has been allowed far to much license by his editors in recent years and has stopped considering that his readers might want to have a life outside spending several weeks reading his latest work. The ongoing plot of The Dark Tower cycle occupies less than a fifth of this weighty tome, The remainder being an extended look into the past of the central character, The Gunslinger-Roland. Although we were promised this in the argument at the end of the (first or second, I forget) book, had I realised that this was all the fourth book would contain I would have been less eager for it's publication (Oh, and look, here's Randall Flagg again, what a surprise!) Heres hoping Mr King can find it in his heart to try and return to form for the next offering from Rolands world.
