[Ham n Cheese]

I started reading this when I was stuck at my boss' place once and blazed through the gunslinger, it was one of the fastest paced interesting books I had ever picked up and the ending left me craving more.

I'm halfway through book II now, it's taking me a lot more time to get through this one because of all the secondary characters taking over page time. I figure by the premise of "The drawing of the three" and the way its started that it's a complete set up book for further books, but I really hope the series returns to form that I saw in "The Gunslinger".

Anyone else reading or read these books? Is book 7 actually the last book or just the last one written? I'd recommend anyone here at least read book 1 if nothing else.
