That's pretty funny to me. I read the start of a King novel when I was probably too young for it (pretty sure it was It?), and just got bored with it. Never tried reading another for years. A decade or two later I tried the Dark Tower series and ended up binge-reading the first 5 books.
I really love those books, although I absolutely see their flaws and understand why people wouldn't like them.
Either way, I definitely don't think you need to be a Stephen King fan to enjoy them. I mean, I'm certainly not and I certainly did. Still haven't read any of his other works...
