    Default DT Maps

    If SK put on the Mid-world Atlas. It would be a great way to give us junkies more of Roland's world without him actually having to write more books. We could track the paths of the beams, follow the progress of the ka-tet, see where all the Baronies are, Jericho Hill, etc. Maybe SK could write little historical blurbs about the places and things. Would be nifty.

    yeah, that would be way cool. I've seen some fan made maps that are pretty neat. Maybe he could give something more with the comics.

    that would be very cool. i am a big Tolkien geek, and I have spent hours looking at the maps that are included with LotR and the Silmarillion. I would love to see the same for all of the places we visited or only heard about in DT.

    This is a really good idea, I am surprised it hasn't been done in one of the companion books.

    I love it! Maybe Ms. Mod will agree to pass the idea on to King..if I can ever get back on his message board...

    That is a great idea! There are a few small maps in the Concordances, correct? But an all-encompasing Atlas would rock! I'm a geek...I'd buy it!

    The first 1000 sold should come with replicas of Roland's .45's or a 'Riza.

    Welcome to the site WildPegasus! Don't worry abuot being a noob ( I love that word! ), I moved the thread for you to our forum, Mid-World, which is all about the Dark Tower. Where you originally posted, The Dixie Pig, is for off-topic discussion.

    Unfortunately I don't have a copy of the map you are looking for, but i'm sure someone on here has access to it and will find it for you in no time!

    If you have any questions, feel free to ask me or any other member of the staff.

    This has actually stirred up a lot of map talk WildPegasus, thanks for bringing it up.

    I would love to get all the maps, (this one), the ones from the comics and any place else together for one viewing and discussion

    I don't actually remember the one posted on dt.net, would love to see it

    Edit: Hurray I finally found it via torrent!

    Dang! That looks pretty cool.

    Looks like we just need some research and basic image skills and we could recreate the whole thing bigger and better.

    ^Yeah, looks like anyone with some photoshop knowledge could make an updated version or something.

    I uploaded it, after finding it through a torrent, in case anyone else needs it:

    That is cool. I wonder why nobody thought of it already?

    I would have loved a detailed map along there journey. It familiarizes the story line that much more...



    "As for gunslingers, Roland," Cuthbert says, "I am here. And we are the last."


    When two fit, it makes you think
    I got the cute one, my woman
    She says, "Lovin's all I bring"
    And it's her loving that's a wonderful thing.
    Lovin' yes we are, it's such a wonderful thing
    When two fit it makes you think
    See us both in the black
    She lays on me so relaxed.

    I agree. I would love a map in the inside flap of the cover or something. It would be cool!

    How about a map that you could cover the ceiling of your bedroom with?
