Why Listen to This Audiobook?

Frank Muller's Roland Deschain is so iconic that many fans refuse to continue the series in any other format.

  • Great if you want: King's most ambitious work — dark, mythic, genre-defying
  • Listening experience: shifts from sparse western dread to propulsive interdimensional adventure
  • Narration: Muller creates unforgettable, distinct voices for every major character
  • Skip if: you need immediate payoff — The Gunslinger is deliberately slow

About This Audiobook

The first three volumes of Stephen King's Dark Tower series follow Roland Deschain, the last Gunslinger, across a dying world in pursuit of the Man in Black, whose connection to the enigmatic Dark Tower holds the key to everything. The Gunslinger establishes the haunting post-apocalyptic landscape and Roland's relentless, morally ambiguous nature. The Drawing of the Three pulls three characters from our world into Roland's. The Waste Lands deepens the mythology as the ka-tet moves toward the Tower.

Frank Muller's performance of these first three volumes stands as one of the great audiobook achievements in the fantasy genre. His ability to voice Roland with exactly the combination of Western archetype and genuine strangeness the character demands, while also differentiating Eddie, Susannah, and Jake, is remarkable. Muller was King's preferred narrator, and listening to this boxed set makes clear why: his voice shapes the Dark Tower mythology as much as King's prose does.
