The Dark Tower V: Wolves of the Calla (5) (Packaging may vary) (Dark Tower, The)
Wolves of the Calla is the thrilling fifth book in Stephen King’s Dark Tower series—a unique bestselling epic fantasy quest inspired many years ago by The Lord of the Rings.
In the extraordinary fifth novel in Stephen King’s remarkable fantasy epic, Roland Deschain and his ka-tet are bearing southeast through the forests of Mid-World. Their path takes them to the outskirts of Calla Bryn Sturgis, a tranquil valley community of farmers and ranchers on Mid-World’s borderlands.
Beyond the town, the rocky ground rises toward the hulking darkness of Thunderclap, the source of a terrible affliction that is slowly stealing the community’s soul. The Wolves of Thunderclap and their unspeakable depredation are coming. To resist them is to risk all, but these are odds the gunslingers are used to, and they can give the Calla-folken both courage and cunning. Their guns, however, will not be enough.

If you've rolled across this review and aren't familiar with the series, this is Book 5 in The Dark Tower series. My advice: stop here and go start at the beginning with The Gunslinger. You're welcome.
This is the first book in the series that I felt was similar to a previous installment, which is that it was a story within a story. Sadly, I was not help captive by this story as I was with the one in Wizard & Glass. While I was very excited to get this story because it's a character I've met before, it just went on too long and wasn't nearly as interesting as I had hoped it would be.
The main storyline concerning the Wolves was fantastic! The ending made me want to go straight into the next one in the series, which is always a great sign. I'm ready for some answers - 2 books left to get them!!

As far as the series goes, this one was pretty good. Just 2 more to go to finish a series I started reading more than 30 years ago. I hope I finish before the end of the year, but we'll see!
