媒體評論
“在大長度對闡述羅伯特·白朗寧的隱秘的敘事詩”公子羅蘭黑暗塔來了,”國王的第二卷post-Armageddon幻想了史詩尋找羅蘭,同樣神秘世界上最後一個,他將通過乾屍的大舉向《黑暗塔》的荒地,“關鍵持有所有的存在在一起。“儘管這些小但揭示圖書(王開始同時還在學院)是充滿了這樣的青少年portentousness,這是比第一生命力。羅蘭進入三住在交替的世界的紐約市:吸毒者和藥物轉輪埃迪·迪恩,精神分裂症的繼承人Odetta福爾摩斯和連環謀殺傑克不走運。如果王告訴我們關於羅蘭太少了,他給了我們太多關於這些其職的人廣泛醫治或懲罰完全一樣的預期。通常,國王要好得多的細節,在一個特定的物質世界的感覺,好幾個這樣的bravura序列(從一個攻擊一個突變的龍蝦槍搶劫商店)在特點甚至輕率的故事。“

原文
"Elaborating at great length on Robert Browning's cryptic narrative poem "Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came," the second volume of King's post-Armageddon epic fantasy presents the equally enigmatic quest of Roland, the world's last gunslinger, who moves through an apocalyptic wasteland toward the Dark Tower, "the linchpin that holds all of existence together." Although these minor but revealing books (which King began while still in college) are full of such adolescent portentousness, this is livelier than the first. Roland enters Three Lives in the alternate world of New York City: junkie and drug runner Eddie Dean, Schizophrenic heiress Odetta Holmes and serial murder Jack Mort. If King tells us too little about Roland, he gives us too much about these misfits who are variously healed or punished exactly as expected. Typically, King is much better at the minutiae and sensations of a specific physical world, and several such bravura sequences (from an attack by mutant lobsters to a gun store robbery) are standouts amid the characteristic headlong storytelling.
