    Default Did anyone else think this was going to happen...

    As I was reading Wolves, I was simply positive that Jake was going to get captured by the Wolves. I kept thinking it was set up very nicely for that. I figured the book would end with Jake being captured and the next book would start with Jake's rescue. Did anyone else's mind go there while reading this the first time?

    No, I knew it was time for a glorious battle.
    The surprise was they let the fellow with the glasses get a pass.

    No. Although I got to wondering that when

    I agree with CK, that was the only point that I thought it might happen. I honestly didn't know where the book was headed, I was just reading so fast because I had a new DT book and couldn't wait to finish it and start over again!

    i didn't see it happening bc he'd already done the "jake in need of rescue" thing with gasher/tick-tock. i did suspect
    Spoiler:
    he may have had to shoot his way out of the dogan, which would affect roland's plans

    Yep, I thought exactly the same thing. The focus on kids and the further characterisation of Jake regarding his psychic abilities, I thought the whole jake / breaker / capture thing was definitely a good possibility, like a direct link with Black House, almost.
