    Never read the books because I heard they end badly and that’s a hell of a time commitment.

      They end fine. Genuinely, read the first book, and read the last chapter of the last book. Ignore everything else.

        Imagine actually suggesting missing out on the height of Stephen King’s mescaline era.

          His cocaine era was his best era. That being said, I did enjoy many of the Dark Tower books, but only as standalone books and not for what they contributed to the series overall, which was a large mess of half thought-out needlessly over-explained medley of what I can only summarize as pure narcissism.

            The man managed to insert his own car accident three times in the series. This dude really needs therapy.

      Huh, it’s one of my favorite endings of all time and I consider it genius. One man’s trash I guess
