Alright, so the first 1/4 of Wizard and Glass took me a couple months to get through, then the last 3/4 of it took me a week, but towards the end i was getting confused.
I know that Flagg is a reappearing character throughout many of king's novels, but here is what is confusing me the most.
The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed...
Is the man in black Flagg? And is the wizard that was in an affair with Roland's mother the man in black? Also, is Walter (The man who scares Jonas towards the end of W&G) Flagg?
If those are true, than that essentially means that Roland left his hometown to chase after his mom's lover, confronted him at the end of The Gunslinger, and then he died. (But he is a wizard, so he must have came back in the land of Oz)
So...another quick question. I have read Eyes of the Dragon as well as The Dark Tower up to 4, so how many names should i know this Flagg character by? Assuming my above questions go a certain way, i can list off Flagg, Marten, Walter, Randall (Flagg), and The Man in Black as aliases.
Sorry for the wall-o-text, but if i understood this just a little bit better I would enjoy the series that much more. Also, if im not supposed to know this yet, then dont tell me, but i feel like i just havent read key parts close enough.
Currently reading 'Salem's Lot then likely digging into Wolves of the Calla
Thank you.
