Another brilliant book from the king of fiction; Stephen King. Every new volume of the series seems to step up a gear which isn`t easy as there is 7 volumes in total, but credit to Mr. King, he somehow manages to do it. Before reading this volume of the series, I thought that he couldn`t improve upon the previous one, & with the title `Wolves of the Calla`I thought they were just going to be hunting Wolves or something for the duration of the book(Wolves in the literal sense), which didn`t really appeal to me, but was happy when I found out what it was really about. The story starts out in a remote town where unlike the way it is here in our world, twins are the norm, & singletons are rare. Every generation a group of rides called the Wolves comes & takes one twin from each family & leave the other behind. Eventually the children are brought back (by train), but are changed. They start to grow extremely tall & become fools (why no one seems to know). And now they have been spotted again, but unlike previous times, the townspeople want to make a stand. This is where the Gunslingers come in. They hire them to defend their children against the wolves, which they agree to, as it leads to another magic ball. I loved everything about this book. I especially liked the obvious homage to `The Magnificant Seven`, which although I have not seen, I have seen `The Seven Samurai`by Akira Kurosawa which the Magnificant Seven is based. The story as you can imagine considering the inevitable confrontation with the wolves, has a lot of violence, twists, moments of sorrow & of joy. Many new characters are introduced in the story too, particularly Father Callahan, who by the end of the story has joined their Ka-Tet. This book was a real enjoyable read. 5 Stars!
