Negative Positive
Title: Confusing, long, and dry
Review: I understand that this book is just the first in a large series but there were so many loose ends that the novel was rather confusing throughout the story, even in the end. None of the characters aside from the main two hang around long enough for you to become attached to them. Compared to other Stephen King books that I have read, this was definitely on the lower end. Many of the characters in the story were also rather disappointing. Most characters hardly stick around for more than a couple chapters, and others are simply memories of the main characters. In a story with very little background, this just adds to the complexity of the story. I am giving the second book a chance now just to see what the hype is all about but I would recommend just picking up one of his many other novels instead.
Is the review positive or negative?
