LOL.....I was too busy skipping greedily along to the story. :twisted: :)
I didn't notice until I picked it up today for a re-read. :oops: :)

LOL!!! I saw it when I first opened it up and went..

"oh geeeeeeeeez...look at all these books I have to read now!" :)

I'm starting The Talisman now and then moving on to Black House. Aren't the Territories in Roland's world?? :)

I don't think it's Roland's world exactly, but another one of those "next door" worlds....one that's close enough for some of it's inhabitants to have an idea what's going on with the Tower....

I'm almost at the end of Black House, and WHOA!! Parkus even mentions Roland and ka. I was up so late last night reading, because once I got to the part where Jack "flips" into the "Little Sisters" tent there was just no putting it down! The Beams, the King, the Breakers, the Tower, Roland and the "other" gunslingers (we know who they are), whew! I'll probably have it finished tonight, GREAT STUFF!!!!! :D :D

Oh yeah Gunslinger!! I wouldn't be surprised if Roland and the ka-tet run into Jack somewhere along the Path of the Beam...maybe book 7??? :)

Jack and Book 7

Post by A Gunslinger »

You said it Fulrs Fire! I surely hope we see Jack in the books somewhere. I DO understand that there is a 3rd and final story to be told with Jack in another joint effort by King/Straub...no detais on dates or anything.

Have you read "Insomnia"? If so, what do you think "Pat" (the boy Ralph saves) will do, and how will he appear? I have an idea, but don't want to share until you say you have read it....trying to prevent spoliersfor you.

It-- Pennywise killed off the Turtle or Tortoise, one of the 13? guardins of the beams that Roland mentioned.

Yep!! But it hasn't been officially announced that King and Straub are actually going to do it. Right now, he's collaborating on a baseball book with someone (can't think of the author's name). So, not sure when or if he and Straub will do T3. :?

Gunslinger...I haven't read Insomnia. I hope to before SoS comes out. I guess I better hurry!!! It comes out next month!! :D
