Time for a second read through? I've listened to it about 3 times now, and from re listening to books (about 5ish on Dune series so a regular thing) it feels so satisfying to realize all the previous clues you didn't catch the first time.The Dark Tower is definitely a favourite, The Dark Tower definitely has lows that are harder to listen to as often as the Dune series though. And King can surely write emotion better than Herbert, I think he understands people in general better than many, which shows in his writing, as meandering as it gets. If I had a clue of the expanse of his story and multi universe I'd have read it SOOO much sooner, but I hadn't the idea how awesome it was when I was younger.

Okay time to hear the story of the Gunslinger again, thanks for the push! The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed....

And Ka rolls on...

Edit I wanted to include my favourite bits, it's not really a spoiler, but at one point the grizzled gunslinger is going towards an unknown danger with his pal, a dude from the 80s (if this is confusing and slightly interesting read the Dark Tower till book 2 or don't whatever), and he takes his friends hand to hold it. There's so few times you see much of that affection between men without people being awkward after in modern media but the characters knew they were there for each other whatever they came across. It's one of the things that makes King's writing awesome. If you've ever been through real trials with someone, you get it and it.
