An excellent graphic novel adaptation of  the beginning of the saga of Roland and his quest for the Dark Tower.

The art is dark and deep, a real part of the story. The added sections not in the novels add to the story and don’t distract.

As a truly committed fan of the original eight novels, I was a bit reluctant to give the graphic novels a shot, but I was glad to see Roland and his story through their eyes.
