BANGOR (AP) – Stephen King had some good news for fans, so he delivered it in person. Sort of.
An animated “virtual” version of the horror writer appeared Monday on his Web site to announce that he had completed the final three installments of “The Dark Tower” series, which have been long awaited by fans.
“People have been asking one question above all others over the past nine years: When are you going to finish “The Dark Tower?” Well guess what – it’s done. So do me a favor and help me spread the word,” he said.
The first “Dark Tower” book was published in 1982.
“Wolves of the Calla,” the next installment, goes on sale Tuesday, followed by the sixth installment, “Song of Susannah,” next summer. The final installment, “The Dark Tower,” is set to go on sale next November.
King said the books, published by Donald M. Grant Publisher Inc., will cost about $35 apiece in hard cover.
“It’s steep but worth every penny,” he said.
