Absolutely! I was against the books until the dvd of the first book came out and thought it was pretty good. At the time my girlfriend (soon to be wife) had read the first book and got me to read it. After that, I read the next 3 books in a couple week period and have been reading them ever since. I\'m actually looking forward to finishing the book and giving it some time so that I can read them all in a row, one after another. If I had to compare a series of books, I would say that I enjoy this series as much or more than Stephen King\'s Dark Tower series.
