Song of Susannah
I just started this book in hope that it would redeem my lost enthusiasm from Wolves on the Calle. I am disappointed. Stephen King does not seem to be even trying to hold his readers attention. It seems to me that he's just airing out all his inner life trifles on philosophy to nostalgia, it makes me think he is having a mid-life crises or worst writers block. Susanah is working together with her demon baby trying to fight off its evil intentions and get back to Eddie? Roland (our hero) is turning into a senile cripple, Eddie is love lost, and Jake is probally in the story just to add more pages to this disaster. I'm thinking of skipping a few chapters just to complete the whole series. I might just let it go unfinshed and create my own ending. Stephen King has wrote many creative stories in the past including The Darktowers 1-4 but now I think he should stick to his short stories and leave the bigger novels to J.K. Rowling.
Good Book
Susannah is now looking for her child support. She is also asking for a paternal test...which makes Roland and Oye very nervous. I think Jake might have tapped that also. Just kidding, this story is well written. SK included himself in the story and he did an excellent job at it. Can't wait to read the next book!
Has S. King become possessed by a hack writer?
His past stories have been so brillant and entertaining, but this book and Wolves of Calla are fine examples of boring tripe by an author that apparentely doesn't believe in trying too hard. His appearance in his own story was a distraction from what used to be the entertaining plot line. He should just mug me on the street if he wants my money that badly.
