On the Terry Goodkind

Books start out good, however the last two have been draging the story out a bit much, (like what are we doing now, and who are we saving the world from this time.

Also the series on foxtel is "loosley based" on the story. Actually the first two episides were based on the boosk, then it became a remake of Zena, with different charaters.

Genre: Fantasy / Scifi / Horror / Western
Author: Stephen King
Title: The Dark Tower (series of 7 books)
Bit of Info: It's really too complex to describe in a few sentences, you will just have to read it and see for yourself, there's a reason it's my favorite novel hands down. A very basic summary: It follows the story of a 'gunslinger' on his quest to find a tower, which he believes will save the existence of his world and the universe.
Rating: and an extra

With such a good rating I bought all seven books. I read the first and enjoyed it but was hoping the rest were more fast-paced. After the second book I'm hooked. Stephen King's a clever man.
Thanks for the recommendation Vixen
