The Eyes Of The Dragon. Stephen King takes us on a different path through Mid-World in a kingdom known as Delain. The Kingdom is spoken of in another short story of the Dark Tower series: “Little Sisters of Eluria.”
Told in narrative much like a fairy tale in a voice that only Stephen can convey. Delain is ruled by King Roland, who in his younger days gained recognition as a master dragon slayer. Now in his advanced age, without a queen, he seeks the hand of Sasha in marriage to give his kingdom of Delain an heir.
Peter is the first born son and is loved by all except one; the King’s advisor, a sorcerer by the name of Flagg. Flagg’s goal is to rule Delain and realizes his plans are thwarted with the birth of Peter and he plots a way to remove Peter from his birthright.
