I've read the majority of SK's novels but have only now started to tackle the Dark Tower series. I had book 1 on Audible.com, then bought & read book 2 on Kindle. Trying to buy Book 3 for Kindle, but it is shown as "Not available for customers from UNITED STATES" on Amazon. Reading some of the reviews from a few months ago, apparently there were OCR problems with the book so it was pulled (but still apparently available on amazon.co.uk, for example).

Any word on when this will be released again? I'd like to keep my momentum going on this series :)

Sorry, no idea. They don't notify us when they make the back-title books available in the Kindle format.

Paper, eh? How quaint ;-)

I bought books 4-7 on Kindle so I guess I'll check the local library for Book 3. I definitely want it on Kindle for long-term.

Just curious - The West Wing is the one place I've heard the phrase, "The big 'Mo" used.

There is a way folks. Publishers / authors should provide the e version free with the paper book. Or the paper version free with the e ! Why ? Well I love to read the real thing, but I use rail travel for my daily commute, and kindle is far more convenient and kind on the books, as they'll stay at home. Vacation and the kindle is the way to do it too. I always buy the paper versions, and the e Version too. On amazon its usually affordable to do this, but why should i buy the book twice ? This practice would also prevent the practice, now widely visible, on eBay for example. Allan authors written works on cd for a few pounds/ dollars, and that includes the author discussed here.
