The series has it's ups and downs but has been mostly downhill. I hope that the final volume does not carry King's tradition of not knowing how to write a proper, satisfying ending.
I agree that Wizard and Glass was probably the best. Though I really like the Waste Lands and Wolves of the Calla as well.

I personally thought the ending to the Dark Tower was awesome. I suspect others will disagree. Not going to spoil it for you, but it was written in such a way that it I did not see it coming until about a sentence or two before 'the end'. But in reading those last sentences before 'the end', I knew exactly what was going happen at the end. I thought it was brilliant - though I am probably not explaining my self very well.
