Okay, so I still haven't found The Gunslinger, but I decided that I know what happens in it* and just skipped to The Drawing of the Three. Which I hadn't read in forever - I haven't read any of the Dark Tower for about...god, five years now and unlike (apparently) the rest of the Dark Tower fandom, I never liked Drawing of the Three and much preferred The Gunslinger.

But now, I am done with Drawing of the Three and have begun The Waste Lands, which is probably the book in the series that I like the best. There has been the gunslinger's catechism and the giant cyborg bear and Eddie's carving stuff and Roland is going crazy and oh man, I love this book. So much love.

In other Stephen King related news! I have been watching Haven. It's still very monster-of-the-week, but it's fun and I'm enjoying it, though none of the characters have really grabbed me as yet. But, y'know, I'm only about halfway through the first season. I am looking forward to future revelations and hoping that the headline in the credits that mentions Reverend Flagg actually comes to something eventually, as opposed to just being a sort of easter egg.





*Desert, Tull, flashbacks, David, Speaking Demon, "Go then, there are other worlds than these", "Death, gunslinger, but not for you", giant freaking blade of grass.
