Never mind. While it is over (in a sense) there's a bit more journey 'in between' to come.

I don't think Patrick Danville's power quite works like that, but some interesting and rather gruesome ideas. I wouldn't quite like that version either (no offence) but I agree that the foreshadowing...

Concerning the tet mates (and I know your post wasn't primarily about that) I actually think he always pulls the same people. Or at least versions of them, possibly from other worlds. I remember a...

Not if he did it with the wrong attitude. I.e. did he save the Tower because he wanted to save the whole of creation, or did he save it just so he could go to the top and see what is there?

I...

I thought you were referring to the Tower putting itself back in danger by sending Roland back.

Of course he saves it before that happens! That happened when they stopped the breakers! He...

I think he always saves the Tower. That's his ka, if you like. It is suggested that he has been doing this numerous times before even this cycle.

The Tower/Gan, being the centre of space and time...

If you're referring to the 'know me through my work' stuff I don't think he intended to be contemptuous. I think maybe some fans were also becoming a bit of a nuisance invading his privacy. Also...

I don't like to think that I'm sentimental (which doesn't mean that I'm not, by the way), but I loved that scene too. Just.. .magical. I wasn't all that keen on her throwing away the gun though, even...

I agree. The Dark Tower is rather different from all his other works after all, (The Talisman being a possible exception).

Not that I'm putting down the Dark Tower books myself. They're probably...

I think Little Sisters is only available as an anthology. Even if it isn't I'd suggest getting Everything's Eventual as there are other great stories there apart from Little Sisters, including...

I thought Jake would probably make it if all the others didn't. At one point I thought Eddie would too as he seemed the closest to Roland (bar Jake), almost Roland's spiritual successor, albeit he's...

Interesting thoughts!

I don't necesarily see Gan as being a careless creator although that does ring a bell somewhat.

Very true, but what bothered me was similar to what another poster said: It was as if King hit the reset button. POOF, all that journey gone.:nope:[/QUOTE]

I would have felt the same way I...

That's how I saw it too. The whole universe dosn't reset, it's just Roland is sent back in time. His actions can affect the timeline differently*... but that's something else.

*Although I think...

I don't think Los is possessed by the Crimson King so much as an incarnation. By that, I mean, it is the Crimson King's own body, although I think he is more than that. I have seen that theory before...

Ok, I've seen photos of you on another thread and that an, er, arresting >< image. That's the word. Yep.

I hope you dressed for the part too.

More pictures please.

For me it wasn't so much that Mordred killed Walter as when, i.e. so early in the book. Especially when we consider a) Mordred was a newborn at the time and b)there is what I -perhaps erroneously-...

Considering the absense of Susannah from the keystone earth (despite originating from another earth, remember the bit concerning the station?), and keystone Jake leading a life identical to our Jake...

Whilst Roland starts over, I'm not sure the others do. I.e. he is sent back in time, so he meets them again, but from their point of view in linear time it's the first time. (That doesn't mean that...

Whilst I disliked his fate... or rather when it happened (not so much how) you make a very good point there.



Could just as well say, my opinion in disliking his fate is insignificant cos I...
