    It was easy to restart and getting through the Andy parts was no problem.

    Spoiler:
    From the start of the book I knew he wasn't to be trusted. That's why I didn't like him. He gave me a "hinky" feeling.


    I think I got this spoiler thing workin'.

    I felt the same way. Sometimes I felt I could hit him with a big heavy broom for hours.

    Roland would have understood.

    I was a young shit when I read The Stand in the very early 80s The Gunslinger soon followed. I was hooked. I waited sooooooo long on this damned series!
    All that's left of what we were is what we have become.

    I was in the 8th grade (13 yrs old) when I got introduced to Roland by a teacher who after thinking about it thought she gave me an idea that would be to much for me to handle. Who knew it would become an adiction that changed my life.Roland and his Ka-tet were my only friends for a while durring a hard time in both school and home, I lived to get to the next book and made it through about one a week at the time even with band practice all the time. I'm about to graduate high school now and I keep a copy of the gunslinger in my car at all times.

    Speaking of "awesome".
    "It's his eyes, Roland thought. They were wide and terrible, the eyes of a dragon in human form" - Roland seeing the Crimson King for the first time.

    Aye lady, you say true.
    CK finds a way to stump me in trivia quite a bit though.

    As I said in another thread, I listened to DT7 all the way to Michigan from Colorado and back (lasted almost the whole trip).

    iPods rule! I can hook mine up so it plays through my radio. It made a two day drive a lot of fun.

    I started reading the DT last November and finished the series in January. I wish I could have started reading the story when I was younger, but I guess every story has it's "time". PLus, considering the time gaps between each book, I feel bad for the ones who had to wait between each volume. That would have driven me crazy.

    Yeah... that's why I am a little bit crazy as well.

    It almost did. Especially between The Wastelands and Wizard and Glass.
