2nd book has the gunslinger (in Eddie’s body) in New York, and yes he had a shootout with the police in a pharmacy. He needed meds for his infected hand.
I don’t remember strange metal boxes with people inside…
4th book is really good. At least teenage me liked it at the time. It’s a prequel book about a time in the gunslinger past when he had just become newly knighted, and a love interest.
After that things get weird. I should try another read through.
It can be pretty much read as an independent book too, so don’t feel like you need to read the other books first. There’s just a bit of tie in from the other books at the beginning and the end.
Oh that actually interests me a lot, thank you. I just started Babel by rf kuang, But I think I will try the fourth book, I’d like to see the gunslinger again. Yeah I was worried. I thought I’d have to go through the whole series again, but a relative stand alone entry sounds doable
Yeah, but Book 4 is the best. Wizard and Glass is the pinnacle of the series.
Been years (prob over a decade) since I’ve read any of them, but I remembered hating Wizard and Glass at first, because it was a prequel and I wanted to hear more about the current journey, but fell in love with it by the end. So fucking good.
When he finally came back to finish that series he really took it off, way off, the rails. I envy you for only having read the first 3.
Oh yeah? Which one did they first visit a metropolitan city?
Was the gunslinger in a pharmacy?
Idk I think I lost interest at that point.
Ahhh look at these strange metal boxes with people inside! - geeeet outta here.

Huh, okay, I would be interested in a prequel, maybe. Thanks

Goddamn right. I wish the whole thing was set in that time.
Seriously? I thought the last two books were the strongest.
Oh man, talk about unpopular take.
You’re entitled to your opinion of course. But that’s a tough one to defend lol
Yes, I wouldn’t bother reading 5-7. The terrifying thing is that he wrote that stuff sober. Cocaine King would’ve done a better job of it, I think.
