    Welcome. Now, lest I go crazy looking at it and wondering why, where is the first quotation mark in the quote in your signature? Did it abscond with that cute blonde girl that you keep talking about? Or maybe it got lost in the fridge (there is a bowl with leftovers in it that has been there since Hurricane Ike). It's possible that I accidentally threw it away when I was cleaning up cigg butts. Or maybe it ran away, crying, because you were mean to it?

    I suggest you find it, because honey, you need that goddamn quotation mark.

    There's logic in nonsense.

    Give me all the bacon and eggs you have.

    For any Tower fan this is absolutely required reading.(also see Insomnia!) The Talisman too, but this and the last few tower books are key to DT7.IMO of course. You really could even read this first if you haven't read the Talisman yet but have read, or are reading DT V, VI, VII. This and Insomnia take awhile to get going... but once the hooks are in, the DT connections start to snowball and rewarding reading only SK can give begins. One of my favorites for sure.

    I strongly disagree. Black House had me hoping Jack would be a part of DT VII and he wasn't. Nor was Parkus. A huge let down for me. If they make another Talisman book, I hope they keep it the hell away from anything related to the Dark Tower.

    I give it a 5.

    Malshun was an interesting creature, and the trip to End-World got me excited for the last 3 Tower books. Henry was cool, but I'd like to hang out with the Thunder Five.

    I sold the quotation mark to purchase back our son from slave traders. Apparently, our loving daughter decided that he was too whiny and cute for her endurance, so she threw him down a well and traded him to Egyptians for a Polly Pocket and a half-used yellow legal pad. I drowned Polly Pocket to sleep in the toilet tank and made thirty-seven yellow paper geese in vengence, and then traded the Eqyptian slavers the quotation mark for the boy. I convinced the cocksuckers that it was the key to unlocking the mysteries of their ancient tongue. Then I threw balloons full of pig urine at the bastards as we trolloped triumphantly into the fucking sunset.

    And I already cleaned those leftovers out of the fridge.

    Anyone who was the time and tenacity to get pig urine into a balloon deserves the right to have grammatical errors in their signature.
