I'm going to blaspheme in the eyes of many, but... that's The Dark Tower for me.

I've read several Stephen King novels over the years. Some better than others, for sure, but none of them really managed to sway me over. And to me it just feels like The Dark Tower is Stephen King at his most... Stephen Kingliest. Meanwhile, the movie is a very well made Hollywood Blockbuster. A popcorn movie like any other. So, even though it isn't anything special, I still quite enjoyed it.

Really do hope you'll end up enjoying them. I might not like his writing personally, but I can understand why people are a fan of him. And I have to admit he's got some wonderful idea's when it comes to stories.
