Fantasy. Fiction. Literature. Thriller. HTML:The third volume in the #1 nationally bestselling Dark Tower Series, involving the enigmatic Roland (the last gunfighter) and his ongoing quest for the Dark Tower, is "Stephen King at his best" (School Library Journal).
Several months have passed since The Drawing of the Three, and in The Waste Lands, Roland's two new tet-mates have become trained gunslingers. Eddie Dean has given up heroin, and Odetta's two selves have joined, becoming the stronger and more balanced personality of Susannah Dean. But Roland altered ka by saving the life of Jake Chambers, a boy whoâ??in Roland's worldâ??has already died. Now Roland and Jake exist in different worlds, but they are joined by the same madness: the paradox of double memories. Roland, Susannah, and Eddie must draw Jake into Mid-World and then follow the Path of the Beam all the way to the Dark Tower. There are new evils...new dangers to threaten Roland's little band in the devastated city of Lud and the surrounding wastelands, as well as horrific confrontations with Blaine the Mono, the piratical Gasher, and the frightening Tick-Tock Man.

The Dark Tower Series continues to show Stephen King as a master of his craft. What lands, what peoples has he visited that are so unreachable to us except in the pages of his incredible books? Now Roland's strange odyssey continues.

Onwaarschijnlijk: steeds maar spannender! ( )

This is a really good installment of the series. I'm not extremely fond of some of the inappropriate, icky bits... but that's what the "skip ahead" button is for. ( )

Major cliffhanger but very good entry. ( )

Stephen King, come recita la sua biografia all'interno del romanzo, è soprattutto un narratore magistrale. Probabilmente nessun lettore si diverte a leggere i suoi libri quanto lui a scriverli.

Leggere Terre desolate è stato come ascoltare un narratore itinerante, uno di quelli che andavano di casa in casa a raccontare le loro storie, con le loro voci capaci di dipingere paesaggi estranei e personaggi mitici. Girata l'ultima pagina, verrebbe quasi voglia di offrire un pasto caldo e un letto per la notte allo scrittore.

Stephen King è proprio uno di quegli autori capaci di evocare i racconti attorno al fuoco, quei racconti che, tra eroi e mostri, hanno tramandato più sapere di tanti maestri di scuola. Terre desolate spaventa per i suoi paesaggi ostili e per le sue mostruosità multiformi, ma insegna a tenere duro, ad affrontare i nemici con coraggio e intelligenza e a fidarsi degli amici.

Non che King volesse scrivere qualcosa di didascalico, ma proprio per questo è riuscito a scrivere un romanzo così epico e ricco d'azione. Tutti sbruffiamo (o abbiamo sbruffato) di fronte ad una ramanzina; tutti noi, però, amiamo le belle storie. ( )

A heap of broken images, where the sun beats,

And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief,

And the dry stone no sound of water. Only

There is shadow under this red rock,

(Come in under the shadow of this red rock),

And I will show you something different from either

Your shadow in the morning striding behind you

Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you;

I will show you fear in a handful of dust.

-- T.S. Eliot

"The Waste Land"
If there pushed any ragged thistle-stalk

Above its mates, the head was chopped; the bents

Were jealous else. What made those holes and rents

In the dock's hearth swarth leaves, bruised as to balk

All hop of greenness? 'tis a brute must walk

Pashing their life out, with a brute's intents.

-- Robert Browning

"Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came"
"What river is it?" enquired Millicent idly.

"It's only a stream. Well, perhaps a little more than that. It's called the Waste."

"Is it really?"

"Yes," said Winifred, "it is."

-- Robert Aickman

The house was alive. He knew this, could feel its awareness reaching out from the boards and the slumping roof, could feel it pouring in rivers from the black sockets of its windows. The idea of approaching that terrible place filled him with dismay; the idea of actually going inside filled him with inarticulate horror.
