SONG OF SUSANNAH

THE DARK TOWER VI



Susannah Dean is possessed, her body a living vessel for the demon-mother Mia. Something is growing inside Susannah's belly, something terrible, and soon she will give birth to Mia's "chap." But three unlikely allies are following them from New York City to the border of End World, hoping to prevent the unthinkable. Meanwhile, Eddie and Roland have tumbled into the state of Maine -- where the author of a novel called 'Salem's Lot is about to meet his destiny....

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The Dark Tower
I enjoyed most of this book, especially the parts with the author written in. Thickened the plot rather nicely. Couln't wait to get through this one and on to the final book.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - almost as bad as the last
I honestly think he should have stopped after the fourth book and should've avoid giving us the "Wachowski feeling" of destroying what might have been a really good and original idea...

What he calls in the last book as "methaphysics" to explain (justify) his own presence in the book, I call it a cheap trick. Does he really have to be there? no, I don't think so, specially since he had already abused of the doors to move between worlds. Those two things just destroyed the series...



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Dark Tower Series Gets Stranger...
Whereas the previous five "Dark Tower" novels take place over large, sprawling periods of time, this novel is much shorter both in reality (400 pages) and within the text (all the events take place within a day or two).

When I first started this book, I was disappointed by the focus on Susannah-Mio, as that (at least to me) was not a very compelling part of the storyline. However, the interactions of those characters in 1999 New York City provides for some entertaining moments.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - tiresome drudgery
This was painful. I just wanted to get through it. Boring, silly, egotistic and just....bad. If I hear the word "chap" one more time, I'm going to freak out. I'm listening to it now..oh god, please let it end. Kill me



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Don't worry, it does get better once we pass this part of the quest...
I wanted to read the entire series before reviewing this and confirming that it is the worst volume in the series, and it is...perhaps this was deliberate on king's behalf to make the last one seem even better, who knows?

This book is essentially an 'add on' to Wolves of the Calla and the whole story could have genuinely been cut down to 50 pages and put at the end of the last volume...

As the title suggests, volume VI revolves around the character Susannah. How you, the ... Read More
