THE DARK TOWER: THE GUNSLINGER (Stephen King) - July 20/17

Well this was an ordeal. King offers up an upsidedown world with next to no context and places a one-dimensional character at the center of a convoluted, uninteresting story.

What a mess. Doubt I'll bother with the followups. * out of ****
