Title: Should have been called "Nineteenth Nervous Breakdown"
Review: Most of the reviewers are right on. I cannot imagine anyone being able to stomach this unless they read the first four.I feel kind of mad that I'm hooked on this. I wish I would have read this one first. I probably would have avoided the previous four and not gotten hooked. As it stands now, I will have to force myself to finish the journey and read 1,500 more pages of this drivel.The dialect of the Calla people is beyond annoying.The smartass tone that is typical of the one or two other King books I read outside of this series could not be more grating in this effort. It sounds like all four of the ka-tet are Larry from The Stand. Terms such as "The Chap" and "Sug" REALLY get on my nerves.To boil it down, it feels that King didn't put a lot of heart into this. It has a first draft feel. I may feel different after I finish VII, but right now, I feel used.
Is the review positive or negative?
