    Wizard and Glass. I liked reading about Cuthbert, and the Eyebolt fight was really cool and not overdone like the final battle in WoTC. I think I might have enjoyed it more because I've come to realize I really didn't like Eddie or Susanah very much...

    Which is why TDotT is my least favorite book.

    TDotT is my pick...probably because that's when all the major players of the series came into the picture...things really starting moving. I actually liked Suze in TDotT...it wasn't until the last 3 books she started riding my nerves...

    For me it goes

    DT7

    Wolves of the Calla

    Song of Susannah, Wastelands and Wizard and Glass

    The Gunslinger and Drawing of the Three


    On the other hand, I love them all, they're my favorite books by far.

    well, maybe someone makes a separate thread for the rating of all the seven books (then these our posts will be merged there), but so far it's fine here... my order is:

    Wolves, The Waste Lands and The Drawing
    Song of Susannah
    DT7
    The Gunslinger and Wizard and Glass

    Oh the way you have it listed in your post is

    "Wolves, The Waste Lands and The Drawing"

    So I took that to mean that they are equally your top favorites.

    yes, they are! But if I have to choose one, it's Wolves. I hope, however, I will never have to in any other place than here.

    Book I--the original one. It IS the book that started this insane crackhead-like addiction to the series.

    Default The Waste Lands

    I'd say The Waste Lands, If not for any other reason then everything in that book was so desperate and vital.

    I think that's WL's biggest virtue: once the pace picks up, it never lets up.

    BOOOO to Wizard and Glass.

    I haven't voted yet...I'm almost done with my audio of DT5, I'll vote when I finish. I have a feeling I know what it is already though.
