The Dark Tower is Stephen King's longest and most iconic series. The dark fantasy epic is comprised of eight books, starting with 1982's The Gunslinger and finally coming to an end with 2004's The Dark Tower. The series garnered critical praise and earned the author legions of new fans. Over the course of 4,700-plus pages, The Dark Tower deftly blends fantasy, science fiction, and western genres to tell the story of the last gunslinger Roland Deschain's quest to find the eponymous Dark Tower.

　　As you’d expect from anything written by King, it’s a chilling adventure, and one that any fan of his work should check out. If you haven't read the series (or just want to add it to your bookshelf), you can snag The Dark Tower 8-Book Boxed Set for just $77, more than 50% off list price.

　　The Dark Tower follows Roland Deschain, a member of the Gunslingers knightly order. His world is one that’s intertwined with magical and technological advances, but also characteristics of the Wild West. Roland is on a journey to find the Dark Tower--a location that’s said to connect universes with each other--and thwart The Man in Black (Randall Flagg).

　　Roland’s reasons for tracking down the Dark Tower are a bit murky, but as you make your way through the epic eight-book series, his true intentions come to light--and you’ll notice plenty of connections to other Stephen King novels.

　　King has made a frequent habit of inserting his characters and places into seemingly unrelated novels within his lengthy bibliography. In the case of Randall Flagg, you'll also find him in The Stand--arguably King's best novel--The Eyes of the Dragon, and the Gwendy's Button Box trilogy, which he co-wrote with Richard Chizmar. All of those King novels are available for great prices at Amazon, too.
