I nearly bought that the other day. Is it any good?


As for me, I'm about 1/4 through The Dark Tower. I loved this series, but I'm excited to be nearly done with it.

Hard to say so far. I'm only about 100 pages in, but so far it's pretty good. It's kinda funny in places with him talking about how little "Bobby" Weir was still in high school when the band formed, and how his mom talked to Jerry about how she wouldn't let "Bobby" come to practice if it made his schoolwork suffer.
It's starting to pick up right now, now that he's talking about the acid tests.
