![]() Nowhere near the performance of George Guidall who read the first book in the series, The Gunslinger. What three words best describe Frank Muller’s performance? Roland and Eddie Dean seem to be a good match for one another ![]() If you could sum up The Dark Tower II: The Drawing of the Three in three words, what would they be? I can't recommend it highly enough and can't wait to listen to The Wastelands to see how the journey continues. A real 'page' turner (if there is such a thing in an audio book), often engrossing and an incredible performance from Frank Muller. Other than the vivid presence that is the Gunslinger, it's peppered with excellently written characters all-round with scenes tackled from multiple angles and points of view in way that makes such writing seem easy, when it certainly is not. The beach, the doors, the lobstrocities (dad-a-chum?) are wonderfully realised. ![]() As i said, there's not much distance made toward the Tower here or what even awaits them there, but the adventures the Gunslinger goes on to 'draw the three' are full of peril, wonder, intrigue, tension, drama and all with a surprising amount of humor throughout. More of a series of character introductions with little real headway made toward the Tower, but the characters are amazing, as are the circumstances under which they're introduced and it's written and performed with skill. ![]()
