Review:Wizard and Glass, the fourth episode in King's white-hot Dark Tower series, is a sci-fi/fantasy novel that contains a post-apocalyptic Western love
story twice as long. It begins with the series' star, world-weary Roland, and his world-hopping posse (an ex-junkie, a child, a plucky woman in a
wheelchair, and a talking dog-like pet named Oy the Bumbler) trapped aboard a runaway train. The train is a psychotic multiple personality that intends
to commit suicide with them at 800 m.p.h.--unless Roland and pals can outwit it in a riddling contest.
It's a great race, for the mind and pulse. Films should be this good. Then comes a 567-page flashback about Roland at age ...

Review:Everybody's favorite introspective dark elf butt-kicker is back. And if you're one of the many fans of
R.A. Salvatore's phenomenally popular twin-scimitar-swinger, you won't be disappointed. The Silent
Blade is old-school Drizzt, an adventure that brings together the original gang: the lovely Cattie-brie,
the plump and mischievous Regis, the gruff dwarven father-figure Bruenor, and the even more gruff
barbarian hammer-hurler Wulfgar. Better yet, The Silent Blade brings back Drizzt's best worst
