Thankee-sai! I have been browsing a bit trying to see what to look out for. All will be well, I'm sure. And a spoiler here and there can't hurt. 75% of the enjoyment of ANY King story is the entire journey to the end, not necessarily the events along the wayOriginally Posted by Unfound One

Thank you everyone for the warm welcomes!
Hello everyone, good to meet you all.
How did I discover the series: Picked the first book, The Gunslinger, of the shelf in a store, read it, loved it and several years later a friend loaned me the next two books, before Wizard and Glass was released, after which I was constantly looking for the next release, which I would then buy and devour inside a few days, then I would read the whole series again while awaiting another book.
Favorite character, Roland is kind of a given, otherwise I would have to say Cort.
Favorite book, The Gunslinger, it had a flavor that the rest of the series didn't, Roland was so much harder and more distant in the book.
Age: 31
From a dirt hole in the middle of Utah.
Nickname: none that I want to repeat.
So with that I will sign off, take care everyone.
Welcome, mr_munshun! Enjoy yourself, and have a look around...there's something for everyone here!
Elodin: "Tombs is for feckless twits who can't chew their own food. My boy's a Re'lar! He has the feck of twenty men!"
Kvothe: “Books are a poor substitute for female companionship, but they are easier to find.”
Simmon: ”It’s just ointment in case you get burned...but if you mix it with piss, it turns into candy.” Sim’s expression was deadpan. “Delicious candy.”
Welcome !

Hey Pablo, welcome to the site. It is great to meet you.
The kindness of close friends is like a warm blanket
Hello there everyone. I was pleasantly surprised today to find this after leaving TDT.net, so it'll be good to get back in the swing of things.
How did you discover the series? I picked up a copy of the Gunslinger in a bookstore after my cousin raved all summer about SK when book 7 first came out. Been hooked ever since.
Favorite character? Probably a tie between Roland and Sheemie (I loved him in IV)
Favorite book? DT: Hands down, The Wastelands. Rest of SK: Either The Stand or The Dark Half.
Age? 20.
Where are you from? Originally from a small Wisconsin town, but I'm in school in Chicago, and it's become a familiar place.
Nickname? You'll have to ask me later.
It's good to get back into this.
I'm sure you'll see lots of familiar faces here, welcome!

argument: the beginning
My name is Pete, I'm 50 and listened to all the books while driving. All highway miles, glad i never got hypnotized or went todash....lol. It was quite an adventure, took probably 6 months. My only problem was listening out of order. My order was book 4, 3, 1, 2, 5, 6, 7. I just started over in proper order. My favorite is The drawing of the three but that might only be because thats the current book i'm in right now.
Wow....I bet that was quite an adventure listening out of order.
At any rate, welcome to the site doubleugly. There's something for everyone here.

Hi all! I'm rereading the Dark Tower series for the umpteenth time. Currently I'm on Song of Susannah...again. I decided for whatever reason to google "Manhattan Restaurant of the Mind" and it led me here. So I joined and here I am.
How did you discover the Dark Tower?
A little by accident. I started reading Stephen King when I was 12-13. I believe I picked up Pet Sematary and something else (Christine, maybe?) on a whim at the bookstore. They scared the bejeebus out of me, but I was hooked.
Not too long after that, I ended up at a used book sale and wound up with a copy of The Gunslinger...and the rest, as they say, was history.
Who is your favorite character?
I'm torn. I love them all. If I had to choose, it would be Eddie. His backstory is so tragic yet so believable, and he's so strong. I love Roland too, though. And Susannah. And Jake. See what I mean?
What is your favorite book?
Wizard and Glass, hands down. Closely followed by Drawing of the Three. But they're all so good.
How old are you?
Turned 30 on my last birthday. I don't think it's sunk in yet.
Where are you from?
Originally the USVI. I've lived in a lot of places, but right now I'm in Philly.
Do you have a nickname?
Not really. None I'd care to share, anyway.
