Editorial Review:

Product Description:
This a pivotal installment in the epic saga provides the key to the quest that defines Roland's life. In the next part of their journey to the tower, Roland and his band of followers face adversity from every side: Susannah Dean has been taken over by a demon-mother and uses the power of Black Thirteen to get from the Mid-World New York City. But who is the father of her child? And what role will the Crimson King play? Roland sends Jake to break Susannah's date with destiny, while he himself uses 'the persistence of magic' to get to Maine in the Summer of 1977. It is a terrible world: for one thing it is real and bullets are flying. For another, it is inhabited by the author of a novel called 'Salem's Lot'. 'Song of Susannah' is driven by revelation and by suspense. It continues 'The Dark Tower' series seamlessly from 'Wolves of the Calla' and the dramatic climax will leave readers desperate to read the quest's conclusion.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Song of Susannah
I purchased 4 audio books of Song of Susannah and returned each one. Each one contained two # 1 disc and no # 2 disc. I would love to have a complete set as I am anxious to finish The Dark Tower series.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very good
The book was in very good condition as described. Exciting book like the rest of the series.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The most exciting volume yet...
After fighting the Wolves of the Calla, Roland Deschain and his ka-tet can focus again on finding the Dark Tower. But there is grave danger ahead. The tremendously important union of the ka-tet is about to break. Now that Susannah Dean is trapped in her own mind by Mia, a former demon, it becomes even more important to keep the alliance together. But the power of Black Thirteen has taken hold of Susannah and before Roland can stop her she is transported via the Doorway Cave to the New York of 1999. ... Read More



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...
