Oh, I just posted all those times without actually telling you what i initially meant to.
Read The Talisman if you haven't already. It's similar to the Dark Tower, only in a short form sorta. But it's definitely it's own unique story. As its own book, it's probably better than any single installment of the Dark Tower, meaning if I had to pick my favorite DT installment, and pit it against The Talisman alone, The Talisman would definitely trump it.
Now I know that's a stupid thing to say, but the point is The Talisman is unbelievable amazing. Read that first. That's my recommendation. Actually. Read it after The Shining. Since it's a collaboration with Peter Straub, the language isn't entirely King's style, so it might not be the best place to really start. But it might not be a bad idea to read that before The Dark Tower. Then read the Dark Tower. And read Black House (The Talisman Sequel) between volumes V and VI of The Dark Tower.
Trust me.
