For me the absolute worst are "The regulators" and its twin book, cannot remember the title right now.

Also, I am NOT fond of the Dark Tower series.

My Dad finds the first books brilliant but just by reading the first page of the first one, I got discouraged and did not pick it up again until many years later (only to find out that every demon in sight wants to get laid with the gunslinger... go figure).

For the rest, I can read just about any other of his books, SK must have cast a spell on me since I read the "Night Shift" collection in my early teens, and I tend to agree with the current "the earlier books the better".

I think a lot of it has got to do with his gift of "visual" writing.

I think it's not by chance that so many of his books got adapted into movies
