Hello, I'm Ewald,
Another Dutchy joining your forum
How did you discover the Dark Tower?
Well, I started the first book years ago. However, it took me a long time to go through it and I stopped after this first book. Thanks to the Dutch Stephen King Fanclub (and being a few years older) I gave it a second try: and it got me! Lucky me, I could read all the books one after another, without waiting for years 'till the next book would come
Who is your favorite character?
That's Jake, and Oy as runner up. Jake is a boy like my own kids but he had to grow up much to fast! Oy just has something, specially the Oy, drawn by Michael Whelan.
What is your favorite book?
In The Dark Tower saga it is Wizard and Glass. I like the romance and the Western style here
When I look at the other books I go for The Green Mile.
How old are you?
I am 46, married and I have a boy's twin and a daughter, all becoming real teenagers now.
Where are you from?
From the Netherlands.
Do you have a nickname?
No.
Up to now I am enjoying all the beautiful collections and other pictures that are on this forum. I am speechless when I see all those unique items. You read about them, but seeing them for real is wonderful.
My own collection is mostly Dutch. Thanks to Frik I started reading English, thanks Frik
After The Green Mile it tasted like more, and more and ...
So now, my collection is turning into USA- and UK-limiteds and gift-editions.
Pretty soon I will post some of my Dutch and USA/UK jewels.
For now, I am very happy to join this forum, you already helped me a lot with my Dolan's Cadillac hype ...
Great to meet you ewald and thanks for joining up. We always love to hear about how much people enjoy the work we have done here.

Hello,
Just a quick message to introduce myself... Like y'all, I am a huge DT fan, have read the series for the first time this year and now feel lost without the continuing saga! So here I am hoping to continue my DT "fix" lol...
See you guys around, I'm sure!
Long days and pleasant nights....

Hello all,
I am an avid King reader that has yet to get through the 2nd Dark Tower book, but is hoping this forum will be a nice way to get me more into the books so I can finish them.
I am a housewife and own my own business from home. I have a wonderful husband and a Great Dane (be careful what you wish for: I always wanted a horse as a kid).
I have been collecting King's 1/1 trade editions for a couple years and am very happy with my collection. Still working on getting a couple of the more rare titles but my budget is not allowing much for now.
Warning in advance, my father's favorite quote was "It is an unimaginative man that can only spell a word one way" so excuse my spelling in the future please.
Thanks for the great community and hope to have lots of fun with y'all in the future.
Welcome Christine and Dean! Looking forward to getting to know you!

Hey Christine and Dean, it is really cool to meet you guys. Thanks for joining the site.
Christine, our collectors area is world class so feel free to get lost in the amazing wealth of information provided there.
The kindness of close friends is like a warm blanket
Thanks guys... oh and from what I've asked my co-workers, Stephen King is an amazing speaker and he completely enthralled the audience. And in person they described him as the most intimidating yet gentle man they've met.
I'd agree with that statement, Dean - and a big welcome to the site to you and Christine and all the others I've missed recently!!
This collecting stuff is a sickness! ~Patrick
Sorry fer ramblin' off, Pard's. Seems the dusty trail pulls us quick'r 'n other times, ye kennit? Well, ter answer yer questions, here it goes:
How did you discover the Dark Tower?
Found the book leaning off a shelf in my AP Lit teacher's class. This'd be the Gunslinger, kennit. Afterwords, I'd keep buying a new book everytime I finished the last. I'm on the Dark Tower now, getting ready to take the final plunge with Roland. I'll miss Ol' Tall and Ugly...
Who is your favorite character?
Book one, it was the Gunslinger himself, Roland. The moral ambiguity alone... Never knew if he was Red or White, kennit? I've really grown to love Eddie though, we're twinners of a sort, I suppose. 'Cept my monkey's a differant breed. Jake's a tough fella too. Seeing him grow up, ecspecially in the middle of the Wasteland and Wolves of the Calla.. plus his and the Pere's palaver in book VI. Nice stuff.
What is your favorite book?
I have to choose? Well, probably Wizard's and Glass, for the beautiful Grecian tradgedy present. And the sheer number of Elliot references in Waste Lands is great. Can't wait fer 7!
How old are you?
18.
Where are you from?
Originally, Calgary, Alberta. Though Ohio's been called home, as has Virginia. Right now its D.C.
Do you have a nickname?
More'n a few, set yer watch and warrant.
