Anyone read these books. He began writing them in the 80s or something, and only finished the final book recently. Unreal story. That is where my online name of 'Roland' came from.

Great books, but I hated the ending.

yep...

it did get a bit silly at the end, but then again, King was probably tripping balls from too many painkillers...

I suppose is the old saying; 'I like your old stuff better than your new stuff'.

A lot of people were pissed with that ending after all those books though. Still, worth a read.

His latest book 'Cell', was OK to read, but was pretty much the same stroyline as 28 days later with the rage virus.

Have you read any of them?

It's hard to judge his work lately, some can be very good, but in others he seems to be losing his touch.
