I read The Long Road once when it came out. I'm ashamed to admit but I barely remembered anything about it. I enjoyed revisiting it. The book is set after Wizard and Glass. The events do not take place in any of the main books so this is an entirely new story. I loved this book. I felt a little sad that I only had a vague memory of reading it. This is a pretty dark tale and completely gripping. I loved it. I'm pretty sure there are other dark tower graphic novels I haven't read so I'll need to add them to my collection at some point.
