Even if we do accept that claim, there are still some problems with the conclusion that the Tower was saved. At some point in the future, the Beams might be attacked again. I figure that if he did...

The question may sound dumb but I usually think of solutions to problems, not to people. I know what his quest is but I don't think that's a solution to anything. I'd rather say getting on top of the...

What would be his solution then? I like the "spiral" idea because it beats Ka by getting to an end, a "resolution". Then you can stop being depressed about it ;)

I guess I didn't make my point clear. The analogy I made between Roland and a drug addict is that you need someone else to point out the problem, which does not mean this is enough to solve it since...

I think you're right here. It's just my assumption he had to meet people to form a bond that would show him how badly he craved for the Tower. I see him as an addict and addicts usually understand...

What it seemed to be saying was not that he was sent back in time to that point because that was the point at which he began to feel that he actually could reach the tower, but rather that that was...

If I'm not mistaken, he wanted to know what was inside the Tower. That was his only desire: to get there, see what's inside and perhaps take over.

That's precisely why I don't understand how Brice can speak of salvation and damnation being one and the same. Starting all over again until the end of time is the worst thing that could happen to...

Then is Roland saved from death by starting on the loop for eternity and damned by having to start it all over again?
Would that be all there is to it or do you see something more profound in the...

(By the way, now I hope he'll repair Shardik instead of killing him. Giant bears are no less scarce than gunslingers, I assure you.)

What significant part do you think Shardik could have...

I've always thought Roland had to start it all back from the desert because the desert is a sort of introduction to meeting Jake. After he meets Jake, he has to decide not to let him fall to his...

That would be interesting and we can only hope that they'll develop this later in the comics :) I only hope the ka-tet changes this time, even if I liked them all so much.

I can't speak for Maerlyn of course but I think you did misunderstand what she meant. She's just saying that, along with me, didn't know until Roland stepped through the last door, that he would have...
