    So what are our choices? Loose story about his dad and his battle, probably not. Jericho, likely! Follow on for the ka-tet? Unlikely but could be fun. After the door closes? Would be great (especially after the heartache of that film). Honestly, any will be great, just a few more pages where I can join Roland on his way....

    I have been thinking about this and I think a short story about Jericho is the way to go... novella size max. I think the real story here should be something like another turn of the wheel. King could finally heal the tower for good and maybe even a new KaTet... now that he has the horn... I think this story would have weight to it.

    I wonder if King will consider doing something on the Tet corporation and its long history battling Sombra in New York. Maybe follow the three men (Cullum, Carver, and Deepneau) during a particularly difficult period? Think that would be interesting.

    I think it would be hard to continue the story with another ka-tet without diminishing the seven volumes we already have. If a later ka-tet is triumphant, why tell the story of Susannah, Jake, Eddie and Oy?

    I think Roland's story is told. His arc is complete. He has become the man he must be, to overcome his own obsessions. After all:
    The gunslinger waited for the time of the drawing and dreamed his long dreams of the Dark Tower, to which he would some day come at dusk and approach, winding his horn, to do some unimaginable final battle.

    I think it could be interesting if there was another book that starts around the battle of the wolves and have flashbacks of how the Horn of Eld has changed or influenced the loop this time. I want to know if Roland would continue to the tower after he was told that his destiny had been achieved by saving the tower and the beams and the multiverses. I know the final book was a finale, but, does it have to be? There are so many changes that could occur. Butterfly effect and all.... perhaps it’s just wishful thinking🤷🏻*♀️

    the story King has always said he would tell if he was to write another Tower book was the Battle of Jericho Hill. I think that's the most interesting story and to fill the gap between His mothers murder and LSOE.

    If he wrote a book about the battle of Jericho I would be thrilled!!!!! I would love to learn about that history. Although I know it is never going to happen, but, I will always want an eight book addressing the horn of Eld. It’s the part of me that feels incomplete while Roland remains in the loop. It’s like Scott Bacula being stuck in quantum space🤷🏻*♀️

    The interpretation of the series that I favour is that he Horn of Eld represents the change in Roland's character needed for him to turn aside after the Tower is saved; it has no literal part to play in the quest.

    But that still changes the story. If the horn of Eld keeps him from seeking the tower than both Mordred and Patrick become useless. What will his choice of life be after the quest? What happens to Susannah? Does she join the breakers? Does she still go thru a door that leads her back to Jake and Eddie?

    I think the book will involve Roland meeting Holly Gibson.
