Haven’t read a King novel in a long, long time. He is a talent that I do miss, just have to make sure life doesn’t get in the way of a nice sit-down with a book

I like Song of Susannah much better than I did Wolves. Wolves lasted too long. What was it, 24 days total and 22 of them were in 200 pages and the first two were drawn out over 250 pages at the front of the book? I just thought it was poorly paced. Make your way through to Book 7, and it will be worth it. (Plus, then you can write a guest post about how awesome the Dark Tower cycle is for me! Tee hee! ).

Hardcover puts me off for reading, too, but I have a full Stephen King hardcover collection, so I’m obligated to keep it current. The space issue will hopefully be resolved for all other authors when I am finally able to afford a Kindle and can just download them to it.

I'm very tempted by this book actually. I finished Wolves of the Calla a few weeks ago and have just been reading bits 'n bobs since then, looking for something to get my teeth stuck into. I contemplated Song of Susannah but I heard it was really terrible. This may just be book for me as I'd like to continue reading Stephen King. The only thing that puts me off is that it's hardcover. Although I do read them, I hate it. They are just so bulky, heavy and unreadable. Of course I don't really want to wait until June before the softcover version comes out... .-= We Fly Spitfires´s last blog ..Player Loyalty =-.
