  • Not the greatest copy but contains a great story.

    The book is in rough shape. You could probably find a better version for the same price. Also the version in the picture is not the version you will retrieve. My copy has a barcode making it look like a library book. Is it a library book? Overall I recommend you find a different seller. That being said, I'm about 200 hundred pages into this book and it's really good. My favorite one in the series so far. I would say King has taken on some darker topics after getting so far into the main ka-tet's adventure. It feels like the first half is finally over and they are approaching the climax after three of the first four books were really background stories preparing for the main quest.
