Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was a tough one. Misery is probably better as a self-contained novel, but The Waste Lands was the book that really got me into The Dark Tower saga. For that, it gets my vote.
Misery. I dont see myself voting for any of the DT novels other than IV or V against any of the top novels. They are great as pieces of the whole, but I have more attachment to the top stand alone novels than I do any of the "pieces" of the DT saga.

that's why I wanted to vote TDT as a novel. Which it is.

We've had this discussion and I just can't agree. I love DT2 and DT6, and DT3 and DT7 are good, but the rest are blah.Originally Posted by Jean

who, I? No, I didn't - I clerarly remember giving it a four
I think the only zero I gave was to Dr.Sleep, which I am sure wasn't written by King but is an example of poorly executed fanfic

oh yes, that one! I tried to reason with him in W&G thread, but to no avail...
We're living among monsters, Browning's! We also have a sweet lady among us who gave The Drawing a 1. Can you believe this?
