very well written, aurora
So...you don't believe there will be another dozen DT books? :lol:[/QUOTE]

I love when these debates turn into a kindergarten brawl!

But couldn't Roland just protect the beams and leave the Tower alone?
so many questions...
I totally agree, the only way to conquer the Tower is to not go.[/QUOTE]
which always leads us back to the same question... what happens to the multiverse when nobody protects the Tower? i still...
Odetta... you touched me with this line.[/QUOTE]
I aim to please! :wub:
Well, it seems to me that Roland is the perfect example of a walking tragedy. Everyone he loves dies (usually because of something directly or indirectly related to him) and, at least in THIS journey...
