Stephen King Releases Book Number 62

The word "prolific" surely describes Mr. Stephen King, who released his latest novel The Wind Through Keyhole on Thursday. While the Dark Tower series was supposedly completed, the author decided to write a prequel of sorts. This book falls chronologically between books Four and Five.
...Stephen King returns to the rich landscape of Mid-World, the spectacular territory of the Dark Tower fantasy saga that stands as his most beguiling achievement.
Roland Deschain and his ka-tet—Jake, Susannah, Eddie, and Oy, the billy-bumbler—encounter a ferocious storm just after crossing the River Whye on their way to the Outer Baronies. As they shelter from the howling gale, Roland tells his friends not just one strange story but two . . . and in so doing, casts new light on his own troubled past.
In celebration Vulture.com has a slideshow ranking all 62 of King's books, which include his many collections of short stories, as well as collaborations with other writers.
