520 $aThe Dark Tower is the final volume of Stephen King\'s masterful, multi-volume epic which has been hailed by The New York Times Book Review as a h̀̀ypnotic blend of suspense and sentimentality...a sprawling, eventful tale of demons, monsters, narrow escapes and magic portals.\'\' In this last novel of the series, Roland Deschain\'s unrelenting quest takes him through a roller-coaster mix of exhilarating triumph and aching loss. Callahan, Eddie, Susannah, Jake, and even Oy-Roland must leave them all as he approaches the Tower, and his steps are followed only by Mordred, heir to the evil Crimson King. In the end, however, a last unlikely ally comes to his aid-a mute young man who holds the key to the Tower itself, which is the center of all time and place. The Dark Tower is indeed the culminating work of a magnum opus which does k̀̀nit the bulk of King\'s fiction together in a single universe...and on some level accommodate all stories, known and unknown, into a master narrative that encompasses the whole of creation\'\' (The New York Times Book Review). Presented in a lavish volume illustrated by Michael Whelan, The Dark Tower took the book world by storm and established once again that Stephen King is the ruler of the universe of fantasy, horror, and suspense.
