Treachery (3) (Stephen King's The Dark Tower: Beginnings)

Enter once more the world of Roland Deschainâ€”and the world of the Dark Tower...now presented in a stunning graphic novel form that will unlock the doorways to terrifying secrets and bold storytelling as part of the dark fantasy masterwork and magnum opus from #1 New York Times bestselling author Stephen King.

â€œThe man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed.â€ With these unforgettable words, millions of readers were introduced to Stephen Kingâ€™s iconic character Roland Deschain of Gilead. Roland is the last of his kind, a â€œgunslingerâ€ charged with protecting whatever goodness and light remains in his worldâ€”a world that â€œmoved on,â€ as they say. In this desolate realityâ€”a dangerous land filled with ancient technology and deadly magic, and yet one that mirrors our own in frightening waysâ€”Roland is on a spellbinding and soul-shattering quest to locate and somehow save the mystical nexus of all worlds, all universes: the Dark Tower.

Now, in the graphic novel series Stephen King's The Dark Tower: Beginnings, originally published by Marvel Comics in single-issue form and creatively overseen by Stephen King himself, the full story of Roland's troubled past and coming-of-age is revealed. Sumptuously drawn by Jae Lee and Richard Isanove, plotted by longtime Stephen King expert Robin Furth, and scripted by New York Times bestselling author Peter David, Beginnings is an extraordinary and terrifying journey into Rolandâ€™s originsâ€”ultimately serving as the perfect introduction for new readers to Stephen Kingâ€™s modern literary classic The Dark Tower, while giving longtime fans thrilling adventures merely hinted at in his blockbuster novels.

Roland Deschain of Gilead and his ka-tet of Cuthbert Allgood and Alain Johns may have finally returned home, but all is not well in the crown jewel of Mid-World. Roland has voluntarily kept the stolen evil seeing sphere nicknamed â€œMaerlyn's Grapefruitâ€â€”lost in his obsession with peering into its pinkish depths, despite the devastating toll it takes on his health...and what the young gunslinger sees within the glass heralds the darkest of nightmares. Meanwhile, all around him, danger lurks in every form, as the shocking and horrific machinations of Gileadâ€™s sworn enemy, â€œthe Good Manâ€ John Farson, threatens all Roland holds dear and in ways he could never imagine...the cruel hand of fate about to push him inexorably closer along the path to the Dark Tower.
