Yay - this morning we were discussing The Dark Tower, which I admitted to never reading.
Today baby was helping me at work by handing out flyers at local businesses for my work's upcoming charity event. One of the places was a funky used bookstore.
When he came back, he surprised me with "The Gunslinger"!

Gunslinger is the hardest one to read though, because King was 19 when he wrote it. Even after a few retroactive edits, it's still choppy in places. But once you get past that and dive into the rest of the books, you're going to be hooked. It's probably my favorite series of all time...as evidenced by my LJ layout and oodles of DT-related icons. :P
Enjoy!

Its the easiest to read only because its so damn short :-p However, it is very different from the rest of the series, so you are not going to be stuck with that style and mood for the entire she-bang. That can be considered the lowest point for the main protagonist, and the rest of the books detail his redemption.
