Quote:I'm not that huge of a King fan myself but the Dark Tower, and more specifically the first book The Gunslinger, are excellent reads by most any type of reader. And there are tons of cross-connections between characters and other King books from what I've been told. The Dark Tower kind of sums all of them up.
 

Quote:I know his books are usually set in Maine, but I didn't know he connected characters through different books. I'll be interested in the movie though, I am a horror/suspense/thriller movie lover, to put it lightly. Favorite genre. 
 

Randall Flagg appears in about 9 King novels, sometimes with different names but the theme remains the same, he is the personification of evil.

 

I like the casting of Matthew McConaughey as Flagg, I hope he agrees to accept the role. As with many depictions of Satan, Flagg is described as an gregarious, initially attractive figure who uses his charm to manipulate others to do his bidding. I can totally buy into McConaughey pulling it off.
