I looked for it, but could never find it (this was pre-internet, dontchaknow). When I saw the display for the audio book I almost fainted! The store I was in didn't have any actual book copies, just the audio, so I bought it! IMMEDIATELY! It was read by the author (BONUS!), and even though it was different from anything else of his I'd read, I loved it...every word! Other King fans at the time looked at me like I was insane. I was the only one I knew of who liked it. Someone else on this thread said she likes to think of that book as a test, and that's the PERFECT way to describe it! Anywho...I've been reading faithfully ever since. I nearly died after "The Waste Lands" waiting for "Wizard and Glass."
Who is your favorite charcter?
Why don't you ask which one of my kids I love best??? I absolutely love them all. Even the evil ones. I won't choose. I won't!
What is your favorite book?
See above. Although I will say that I've never cried so much as I did the first time I read The Dark Tower VII. I still cry in the same places every time, even though I've read it half a dozen times. It absolutely rips my heart out.
