Despite the cover, the addition of Cort's niece as a possible future gunslinger is a very small plot. It adds shading to what's going on, but doesn't seem to derail or shift anything major. That made me very happy. Treachery is the perfect name for all that's going on. You really begin to see the death of Mid-World at this point... it made me just as sad and frustrated as it did when I read the novels. Four stars! ( ) I really wanted Furth to move the story forward a lot more than he did. Maybe if this volume and the previous one were combined I would have felt more. Instead I kept wishing for something to happen. We did get that scene that was shown to us readers in [b:Wizard and Glass|5096|Wizard and Glass (The Dark Tower, #4)|Stephen King|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1327946510s/5096.jpg|750558] though, so that was good. We don't get much of our Roland in this one. Just Bert and Alain trying to do what they can to snap Roland over his grief of Susan and also his obsession with the grapefruit stone he now has. I also am baffled by Roland's father, for being a gunslinger he doesn't seem too bright. I say that as someone who does not get what hold his wife has over him after finding out that she has betrayed him. I guess sending her off to be cleansed of her sins was just the way they did things in Gilead, but I would have been done and told her to enjoy the convent. The whole parallel to King Arthur and Guinevere cannot be denied. But since this book's version of Lancelot (The Man in Black AKA Martin Broadcloak) is neither loyal or trusted by Steven Deschain one wonders why he let the guy hang out for as long as he did. I think the book made my sympathsize with Gabrielle Deschain more, probably because King alluded that the character was put under a spell. The graphic novel shows her as a willing participant. The colors in this one felt very drab. I am glad I was able to blow up the panels on my Kindle, otherwise I would have had a hard time reading this in hardcover form without a magnifying glass. Well we all know what is coming next after this one. Cannot wait to read [b:The Dark Tower: Fall of Gilead|6697968|The Dark Tower Fall of Gilead|Robin Furth|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1327977491s/6697968.jpg|6893660]. I can't say enough good things about these comics. The art is freaking wonderful. The stories in the first two volumes are great adaptations to King's Wizard and Glass, but this one takes it all much further, elucidating on the bare sketches of events leading up to the Fall of Gilead, the seat of Midworld and Roland's now-lost home. This treatment of the original hints in the source is emotional, dark, appropriate, and fills me with great dread. Treachery, indeed. Roland's no less than his mother's. And let's not forget Farson and all his men, shall we? This is what we get for trusting anything that is evil. We're strong enough to make it, right? RIGHT. Say hello to my little friend, the Crimson King. :) Story: excellent. Artwork: brilliant. :) I enjoyed "Treachery" far more than the previous book "The Long Road Home." "Treachery" fleshes out what happens to Roland and his mother; things that are only somewhat referenced at the very end of "Wizard and Glass." With the introduction of Aileen, a girl who has the audacity to want to be a gunslinger, I was afraid we were going to get a story arc full of feminist rhetoric, but this was not so. The writing is much better than the previous book too. Robin Furth is getting much more adept at capturing Stephen King's so utterly unique voice. Like the second collection, [b:Dark Tower The Long Road Home|2834890|Dark Tower The Long Road Home|Peter David|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1224793721s/2834890.jpg|2860996], this was new, original material and it was AWESOME. I can never get enough of Roland and Mid-World and, despite not much face time for Roland himself, this did not disappoint. Recommended for Dark Tower fans. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
