I keep coming across mentions of this Roland character in passing. I.e. the "Roland Special" pistol that General Scott Miller carries around named after the character in the books. I've never been a big fantasy reader; I always liked the Dune series (I guess that's not really in the genre) but thought the Elric of Melnibone series was ok at best. I've read some other fantasy books that were pretty terrible.

I don't care about the movie where they cast a nigger as Roland.

Came in here to second this. It's a sprawling noir fantasy/post-apocalyptic/Western epic with references to dozens of his books within it. Easily one of the best fiction series ever written, even if Stephen King is a commie sonuvabitch.

Sounds good thanks. I've been picking terrible books myself lately, didn't even finish the last one.

Nice, maybe a sticky is in order?

Can you recommend something along the lines of La Bas, Foucault's Pendulum, Zanoni and The Club Dumas? If you read those kinds of books. I never read The Illuminatus Trilogy but it's on my list.
