"My idea was to use the Dark Tower stories as a kind of summation, a way of unifying as many of my previous stories as possible" (Stephen King). These novels, the work of a lifetime, are "different in tone from most of Stephen King’s work—and perhaps more demandingly inventive than usual—these have an undeniable mythic charge" (Clute & Nichols, 666). "Each of the novels is a mélange of motifs and ideas borrowed from horror, fantasy, Western and science fiction King’s narrative strategy and plot mechanics for the individual installments of the series show a wide variety of influences, ranging from L. Frank Baum’s Oz novels to Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales [King indulges] some of his most fanciful and extravagant horrors" (Fantasy and Horror 6-194). Generously illustrated with beautiful full-page color plates by Michael Whelan (I, VII), Phil Hale (II), Ned Dameron (III), Dave McKean (IV), Bernie Wrightson (V) and Darrel Anderson (VI).
