The Dark Tower 06 - Song Of Susannah By Stephen King

Prologue: As Stephen King's seven-volume magnum opus draws to its electrifying conclusion, his hero, Roland Deschain, discovers the key to the quest that defines his life. Susannah Dean, her body taken over by a demon-mother named Mia, has used the power of Black Thirteen to transport out of Calla Bryn Sturgis to New York City in the summer of 1999, so that she can give birth to her "chap." While Jake, Father Callahan, and Oy try to break Susannah's date with destiny at the Dixie Pig on Lexington and 63rd, Roland and Eddie use "the persistence of magic" to get to East Stoneham, Maine, in the summer of 1977. It is a frightful world that they walk in on. For one thing, it is real, and the bullets are flying. For another, it is inhabited by the author of a novel called Salem s Lot, a writer who turns out to be as shocked by them as they are by him. Driven by revelation and suspense on these two fronts, Song of Susannah continues the Dark Tower saga from Wolves of the Calla; its dual climaxes create a positively distressing imperative to move on to the quest's conclusion. King's legions of ardent readers will again relish the links between the Dark Tower universe and his other books — and delight in the unfolding denouement of his magnificent serial epic.

"When they call the roll of the great figures of modern American literature — Bellow, Miller, Morrison, Updike, Roth — they can now add a name: Stephen King."
