Hi, everyone! Even though I read my first Stephen King book over 30 years ago I just started my journey along the path of the beam this summer and I’m currently on Book VI (actually finished WotC this morning!)
Loving the series and characters so far and I’m having fun becoming obsessed. Have already started trying to track down the hardcover editions of the Tower books and grabbing copies of the other novels that tie in.
Welcome aboard! Take a look around. Once you have 5 posts, more things will open up to you.
Welcome...
WELCOME ANN and Pere!!
Welcome, Jere!
That was a great read, thank you!Quote:

I personally think a filmmaker has an obligation to stay true to an adaptation’s origins (within reason of course as film is a more limited medium) but if they are going to stray then they had better put something great on the screen. I think Kubrick succeeded but most fail miserably. I’ve never been more happy a film didn’t get made than I was after watching the “Jodorowsky’s Dune” documentary. What a drug fueled pretentious mess that would have been.
Hey. I'm frank. G'day everyone.
Artist editions of the DT? Anyone still a fan?

Today when I was thinking about reading Space Trilogy by CS Lewis I came across the fun fact.. although, not sure how fun it is.. CS Lewis wrote "The Dark Tower" story. did not finish it, and his editor, Walter McGehee Hooper, publish it. Counted letters in his name, so I did...
Yer bugger.
Hey everyone, I made some posts back in 2008 something, somewhere around then. Can't find my posts or my photos. How do I get back to what I posted back then, or that threads they were on? when i CLICK on my name or user profile, it has nothing. Trying to look up my old days photos of "the turtle" in north oklahoma, thanks in advance.

What is your favorite book?
By Stephen King, probably Eyes of the Dragon, but Gunslinger is a close second, and I have fond memories of both Needful Things and Tommyknockers.
I follow developments in the fine press world, off and on as an amateur, and I am consistently amazed by the devotion of King fans and level of activity around his books in the collecting world. I remember coming across info about the Dragon Rebound several years ago, and being completely blown away.

Hi I'm from midwest Michigan and found The Dark Tower just browsing around on "FindAForum". I am a Stephen King fan and looking forward to mingling with other SK fans! Tommyknockers is one of fav SK books for sure!
