Her work with King as he completed THE DARK TOWER series produced THE DARK TOWER: THE CONCORDANCE VOLUMES ONE AND TWO. Furth has since written the story lines for Marvel's bestselling comic book spin-off series THE DARK TOWER: THE GUNSLINGER BORN. She divides her time between Maine, the south of England, and Mid-World.
