When Oy died, I cried so hard and had to throw the book across the room in a rage. I've never gotten that emotional over the death of a character before, especially an animal character like Oy. I mean, I cried a whole bunch of times through the series, but I never expected Oy's death to bother me to that extreme. I didn't read the book again for a week after Oy's passing. I couldn't.

To make a Star Trek Analogy...
Eddie Dean's Death = Tasha Yar's Death

Jake hit me hard, Oy hit me harder, I was pissed at the both of their deaths...not so much Eddies and I am not sure why, oh well
I can't even think about Oy without getting all teary
Jake's. I was expecting it, because I could see what Ka had in store for Roland, but it still shattered me.
Margaret Emmie Mackey Catoe, you are, have been, and always will be my soulmate, and I love you.

Eddie's, it was just wrong. . Never knew what hit him.
Eddie, I didnt see that coming at all.

Jake.... both times....
Randall Flagg.
yeah, frozen and eaten alive...
that would seriously suck but I think Roland should have had the honor.
Lalalalaaaa, lalalalaaa

i voted for jake, it was roland and oy reaction that got to me
then when re reading it last year, i had to have my dog put down and reading D7 i knew what was coming and had to put it to one side for a few months then when i finally plucked up the courage to read it i cried when jake died and then had full on sobbing when oy died.
For me, it was pretty much a three-way tie between Jake, Oy, and Eddie.
All three deaths just broke my heart...
I ended up voting for Jake, though.
The poor kid didn't die once but twice.
Do you think King himself cried while he was writing it? Maybe later?
Roland would have understood.

i think the good father hit me the hardest actually i really liked him
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ack! It's not stupid at all, Letti! Dont say that!
Finding one's way home is beautiful, and the Father's path ended in strength of faith and glory in redemption.
Lotsa good stuff there.
And you knew that in your heart, Letti; so you couldnt be stupid. You just didnt trust the words to say it properly on behalf of your heart.
Flagg's death truly did suck. It's a shame, as he's one of my favourite villains ever. If ONLY he had been wearing a ring like good ol' Saxon did!
Seriously though, I think the death that affected me the most was Eddie's. It comes COMPLETELY out of nowhere. They'd won the fight, they were really happy and celebrating, and then, BANG. Like Flagg's death, a bold choice, but unlike Flagg, one that actually worked. The moment Eddie died was the moment you knew there wasn't going to be any fun on the journey anymore.
