Summary: Song of Susannah
Comment: I purchased 4 audio books of Song of Susannah and returned each one. Each one contained two # 1 disc and no # 2 disc. I would love to have a complete set as I am anxious to finish The Dark Tower series.

Summary: The most exciting volume yet...
Comment: After fighting the Wolves of the Calla, Roland Deschain and his ka-tet can focus again on finding the Dark Tower. But there is grave danger ahead. The tremendously important union of the ka-tet is about to break. Now that Susannah Dean is trapped in her own mind by Mia, a former demon, it becomes even more important to keep the alliance together. But the power of Black Thirteen has taken hold of Susannah and before Roland can stop her she is transported via the Doorway Cave to the New York of 1999. Lost in a city she only knows from years ago, Susannah fears that she has to give birth to her child on her own, without the support of her friends. Moreover she feels that she is about to lose control over Mia. When that happens the future of the ka-tet will be threatened. In the meanwhile Roland needs to find the author of the book titled Salem's Lot because he feels that this is the only way to defeat the Crimson King and to bring the ka-tet together again.

If you could appreciate the previous five books of the Dark Tower, Song of Susannah is going to blow your mind. Not only does King prepare the finale that is going to happen in the final book The Dark Tower, but he also weaves a web of intrigues that goes far beyond the previous books. After reading Song of Susannah you get the feeling that you are at the front door of the Dark Tower, with the promise that what's behind the door is going to be amazing. The introduction of Father Callagan in the previous book, and the amazing lint to Stephen King's `Salems Lot, becomes even more exciting in this volume. I will not ruin the story for you, but know that when Roland gets closer to the true nature of the Crimson King, the hair on the back of your neck will stand up, no doubt. As with the Drawing of the Three, travelling through the different worlds becomes again a major story point, something that I truly missed in Wizard and Glass. The only negative thing I can say about this book is that is announces the closure of one of the best stories ever told. What will we do without when the secret of the Dark Tower is revealed?

Summary: The Dark Tower
Comment: I enjoyed most of this book, especially the parts with the author written in. Thickened the plot rather nicely. Couln't wait to get through this one and on to the final book.

Customer Rating:

Summary: almost as bad as the last
Comment: I honestly think he should have stopped after the fourth book and should've avoid giving us the "Wachowski feeling" of destroying what might have been a really good and original idea...

What he calls in the last book as "methaphysics" to explain (justify) his own presence in the book, I call it a cheap trick. Does he really have to be there? no, I don't think so, specially since he had already abused of the doors to move between worlds. Those two things just destroyed the series...
