Roland's dance.
Hands down.
I also loved the big dance, where Susannah sang and Roland danced the Commala.
Man, I was there with them.Quote:

Eddie in this book was at his best. My favorite parts involve him...his todash trip with Jake and his confrontation with the gentlemen.
I love when he reads the letter left by Calvin's great great grandfather from Steven Deschain...gave me chills.
I'm glad you brought this up because I never got it.
How in the hell did that all come about anyway?
Did it say some place that the letter was written by Steven Deschain? I just listened to that part recently and I don't remember it being at all clear WHERE the letter/directions came from or WHO originally wrote it. I only remember the book saying it was from the will of Tower's great, great grandpa. Hmm.Quote:

"Oy, Eld, Thankee"
I have no shame admitting that moment brought tears to my eyes and really shows Roland's humanity.
That was a fantastic part.Quote:

Yes, Roland dancing the commala was a great and completely unexpected event. It made me cry when Eddie references it ... later.Quote:

It's definitely among the times you realize that for everything else he might be, Roland is still a human being.Quote:

Back to the topic.
My forever favourtie part from the whole series is the dance of Roland. Not just from this one but from all of them.
I feel much the same way about Oy's greeting to the Calla folken.Quote:
