The first book in Stephen King's legendary Dark Tower series, in a beautiful new edition, now revised and expanded
throughout with a new introduction and foreward by the author
Eerie, dreamlike, set in a world that is weirdly related to our own, The Gunslinger introduces Roland Deschain
of Gilead, of In-World that was, as he pursues his enigmatic antagonist to the mountains that separate the desert
from the Western Sea. Roland is a solitary figure, perhaps accursed, who with a strange singlemindedness traverses
an exhausted, almost timeless landscape. The people he encounters are left behind, or worse--left dead. At a way
station, however, he meets Jake, a boy from a particular time (1977) and a particular place (New York City), and
soon the two are joined--khef, ka, and ka-tet. The mountains lie before them. So does the man in black and, somewhere
far beyond...the Dark Tower.
