The Road to the Dark Tower: Exploring Stephen King's Magnum Opus

"Stephen King's seven-volume saga follows Roland, the last gunslinger, on his quest to reach the Dark Tower and not only save the world, but save every world across countless dimensions, all threatened by the Crimson King." "With the full cooperation of Stephen King himself, The Road to the Dark Tower examines the epic journey of the author, a quest that undoubtedly mirrors Roland's to complete a story that threatened to overwhelm him." "In this companion, Bev Vincent presents a book-by-book analysis of each volume in the series, tracing The Dark Tower's connections to King's other titles, including The Stand, Insomnia, and Hearts in Atlantis, and offering insights from the author about the creative process involved in crafting his lifelong work - a work that has consumed not only Stephen King, but his legion of constant readers."--BOOK JACKET.
