My Artist Edition of SoS arrived 20 minutes ago!! It's beautiful!!
And Grant "pulled a fast one on us," check out
www.thedarktower.net for a photo of the cover of the book I'm holding.
Not one word, people, I promise....
I have a new scanner, but I don't know how it works...
if I can figure it out I'll try to scan in the artwork somehow, if y'all are interested. There's one pic that's not really a spoiler, but it's pretty shocking to see anyway....
WHEE!!!!

I'm turning chartreuse with envy.
However, I'm not sure I want to see potential spoiler artowrk. I felt Bernie Wrightson's illustration of a Wolf in Wolves of the Calla gave away the fact that the Wolves were robots, hundreds of pages before King confirmed this in the story.
Rather bummed me out.

GAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
Oh my gosh, I finished it, and I can't talk to anybody about it for such a long time...!!!
It's a rollercoaster ride, for sure. Nonstop, fast paced, flying along by the seat of your pants, flat out terrified for the charaters I've come to love, from (this is only a very minor spoil)
the time they leave the Calla
right up till the last page of the story.....which makes the last page of The Waste Lands look
boring by comparison.
I couldn't put it down. I locked myself in my room today for the last 120 pages or so, and refused to come out till it was done. I wanted no distractions if I ended up bawling like a little baby.
And I won't say anymore. There's one thing I would very much
like to say, that would have made the going a little less grueling for me.....but I won't, 'cause some people might consider it a spoiler, even though it's really not, but it kind of is....
Again: GAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

My local bookstore just got in a copy of SoS - it looks a lot shorter than
Wolves...
I'll not be getting it yet, however - But the paperback of Wolves is out soon, so I'll be getting that one

It's just you. King is just trying to link worlds around the axle of the tower.
