    In The Wind Through the Keyhole, Stephen King has returned to the rich landscape of Mid-World. This story within a story within a story finds Roland Deschain, Mid-World’s last gunslinger, in his early days during the guilt-ridden year following his mother’s death. Sent by his father to investigate evidence of a murderous shape-shifter, a "skin-man", Roland takes charge of Bill Streeter, a brave but terrified boy who is the sole surviving witness to the beast’s most recent slaughter.

    Cassandra says: "An exceptional story, but I miss George Guidall."
    "Great to go Back to Midworld but..."

    If you could sum up The Wind Through the Keyhole in three words, what would they be?

    Great journey home


    What did you like best about this story?

    The creativity of it and just the whole new adventure with a great Ka-tet


    How could the performance have been better?

    Hiring a professional voice over actor. This was a major disappointment not to have the usual narrator do the story. Stephen King has shown many times he is NOT an actor. All voices are read the same tone and with no emotion at all. I am very upset by this point. I was so looking forward to this book and this part ruined it. I hope it wasn't just plain cheapness that didn't allow for a professional voice over actor or perhaps Stephen Kings ego. Very unhappy about this point.


    Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

    I enjoyed the whole story from begining to end. Aside from the voice work it was great and really hope there are more adventures to come with these characters.
