This is a book that is long, long over due, and the author's blog post about completing it is a very interesting look at the writing process, at least on the revision process and the publication process. Lot's of different thoughts out there about Martin and his talent as a writer, and I share some of the better opinions and some of the worse, but the best praise I have is that, regardless, I've been waiting for this book for years.
Reminds me of another series that took almost an entire lifetime to write, King's Dark Tower books. Seems that he wasn't quite done yet. Not a sequel, though, to the final volume. That would be impossible. In his words, it is more like volume 4.5.
Anyway, can't say I was really dying to read another Dark Tower book. But, damn it. I know I will.
StephenKing.com is proud to announce The Dark Tower: The Wind Through the Keyhole. The next installment of the epic series is set for release in 2012.
