Like I said in another thread, I'm really surprised this USA Today revelation flew under the radar for half a year. Amazing! And it's such humongous news.
This is indeed exciting.
Spoiler:
Wow, I can't believe I almost didn't mention that article assuming it was old news...I joined in June so I wasn't sure what I'd missed here. It was really buried though, I don't even remember exactly how I found it, so I can see why nobody ever ran across it.
I'm definitely not expecting a release in November - an announcement, however...let's hope!
From Ms. Mod's latest comments I'm getting the feeling we're talking about the interactive DT blah-thing.
It will be a feast for your eyes.But I don't think this negates what King told USA Today about continuing the DT series.I'm just excited (and a little nervous) about it after having been involved with the production end for the past 10 months or so and am hoping that all of you will be equally excited.

Ms Mod also posted this:
andAnd yet another exciting project that we should be announcing somewhere around the middle of this month.

I just found out about this yesterday from Liljas's site. That's what I get for sticking mainly to the Comics and (occasionally) book discussion.
Reading everything I doubt it will be a new book, although I hope there is one in future if dealt with in the right way. I'm not sure it should be set 'after' book 7Spoiler:
'Feast for their eyes' certainly suggests web content. However that 'ka is a wheel' also suggests some kind of continuation. Would an interactive 'fact-file' constitute that (if that's what the content will be)? I hope it's more than just an exposure of fact we already know in an interesting way though... although I'll certainly peruse it.
All good news though.
Oh, wow, can you imagine a DT themed MMOG?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MMOG???
This collecting stuff is a sickness! ~Patrick
if the worlds gonna end then let's get it over with, i got shit to do
Imagine finding a freestanding door on a beach...
gods, they don't even have to make it based on the direct actions of rolands ka tet, an MMOG where you get to be a mani or a gunslinger or dark wizard or breaker, etc and form your own ka-tet and travel the multiverse makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside
if the worlds gonna end then let's get it over with, i got shit to do
I would be totally thrilled with a Dark Tower themed MMOG... gosh, the possibilties are endless.

wow. IDK how to feel. Many thanks to ola, fro bringing something to our collective attention. I can't believe it went unknown by us for so long, but I guess people were busy.
In my mind, the only way I think it could be great would be a HIA style short story/novella collection playing six degrees of separation with our favorite ka-tet and friends.
TBH, I am kinda weirded out by this and don't know how to feel.
"So many vows. They make you swear and swear. Defend the King, obey the King, obey your father, protect the innocent, defend the weak. But what if your father despises the King? What if the King massacres the innocent? It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one vow or another."
a game - meh. i don't really play them so. . . .
a new dark tower novel? i have to say this would hurt. it's over. he said it himself. i wrapped my head around it. cried with everyone. mourned everyone. said my goodbyes. i don't think i could read another dark tower novel. it would seem like a cheat somehow.
i mean, i hate to play the annie wilkes card here but. . . . anyone remember the old serial shorts she was bitching about in misery? and how it always pissed her off that the hero got out of the jam in the next week's reel somehow even though that wasn't how the previous week's reel had ended?
