We love this boxed set, because it includes 8 volumes of The Dark Tower series. Roland gets closer and closer to the Dark Tower, but will it be everything he hoped for once he gets there?

The Stand

What would our world look like, if only one percent of the earth’s population would survive after a computer error caused so many deaths? In our research this is one of Stephen King’s best works ever.
