The Gunslinger/ Stephen King/ 250 pages/ Part of a series/ Horror

       This is the first book in the Dark Tower series by Stephen King. In this novel we meet Roland, the last gunslinger, who is chasing after the Man in Black.
       Roland is a lonely character who is on a long journey dealing with good and evil. Along the way he meets a young boy named Jake and the two form an adorable friendship the they each needed.
       This book flies by and for being such a short novel it covers a lot. Roland travels so far and deals with so much and you feel right there with him. The novel also has such a dreamlike feel to it and is such a strange mix of fantasy, western, and horror but is blended together beautifully. If you are in the mood for a long series and a fun adventure I recommend giving this series a try. I cannot wait to start the next book!
