This is from my BOTM series, it is a second reading for me. It was just as good as I remembered. This is a fantasy novel meets the old west. The main character Roland, is a “gunslinger” i.e. knight of his society. The world has moved on, or is dying, it is full of mutants and empty landscapes. King does a great job setting up the series, he gives tid-bits of Roland’s past and the back story and the mission, without really telling us anything and making us want to read more. This is a great start of the series.
