Jae Lee is the perfect artist for this series.

I just finished Underworld and I am looking for another really epic reading experience, would The Dark Tower be a good choice?

hell yes. that's the same reason i started reading them. and the fact that so many of king's other books connect to the dark tower series makes it even more epic of an experience.

I liked the first but the second sucked a bit for me

Really? I thought the second was the best book of the series. I mean, we go from seeing Roland as the unstopable badass, to, well, his situation on the beach. :)

One of the most unexpected things ever.


/this post gave away nothing, don't worry.

if you're in the mood for a long reading experience that, in general, gets progressively worse, yes. i would recommend reading the first three or four books, and then just ask someone to tell you what happens.
