I thought his part in the Dark Tower books was very moving, very redemptive.Someone Saved My Life Tonight
Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the album Captain Fantastic And The Brown Dirt Cowboy
When I think of those East End lights, muggy nights
The curtains drawn in the little room downstairs
Prima Donna lord you really should have been there
Sitting like a princess perched in her electric chair
And it's one more beer and I don't hear you anymore
We've all gone crazy lately
My friends out there rolling round the basement floor
And someone saved my life tonight sugar bear
You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear
You nearly had me roped and tied
Altar-bound, hypnotized
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
You're a butterfly
And butterflies are free to fly
Fly away, high away, bye bye
I never realised the passing hours of evening showers
A slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams
I'm strangled by your haunted social scene
Just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen
It's four o'clock in the morning
Damn it listen to me good
I'm sleeping with myself tonight
Saved in time, thank God my music's still alive
And I would have walked head on into the deep end of the river
Clinging to your stocks and bonds
Paying your H.P. demands forever
They're coming in the morning with a truck to take me home
Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight
Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight
Someone saved my life tonight
So save your strength and run the field you play alone

Callahan was incredible!!! Are you all done with the books Duchy?
And I believe in you

LOL!!! Okay...
****** SPOILER FOR SALEM"S LOT************
At the end of Salem's Lot, Callahan gets "pricked" by Barlow and made to "drink". He then goes back to the Church and it rejects him, won't let him in. So he goes to the bus station and gets on a bus...hence his story is picked up right there in Wolves.
BUT, in the mini-series, they turn him into a vampire and he MURDERS Matt Burke in the hospital!! And then, Ben Mears and Mark Petrie find him in Chicago I think it is, and murder HIM in the hospital. COMPLETLY WRONG!!!! It really infuriated me.
