Personally, I liked the first book, albeit the updated version. There's not a lot of meat to it, but it introduces Roland and his nemesis Walter O'Dim, not to mention Jake; gives little hints about Roland's past and childhood; and also shows how he is stone-cold-killer (the town of Tull). Oh yeah, and it also sets up the number 19!

No offence but I specifically said no spoilers in the OP. It wasn't very well disguised, and so I hope that isn't a stupidly big reveal.
