The man in black explained that Roland has caught the attention of his superior, who remains unknown, taking an interest in Roland’s endeavors. The main protagonist, Roland Deschain of Gilead, is obsessed with locating the Dark Tower, so he shadows the man in black, who seems to have answers when confronted, though they are obtusely revealed with a turning over of Tarot cards. Several of us have just finished a trek through The Gunslinger (1982), which originally was a collection of short stories, later bound together, effectively capturing a world certainly familiar to us-Wild West background set to modern pop tunes-but stirring nightmarish images where time is out of mind and people displaced in various purgatories. Thank you for joining me on a journey of Stephen King’s The Drawing of the Three (1987), the 2nd book in The Dark Tower series. ![]() After finally catching up to the man in black at the end of The Gunslinger-now what? Join us on the beach as we begin our journey across a different kind of desert in Part I of The Drawing of the Three. ![]()
