I hope the story DOESN'T end as it started... Stephen King did this and I am STILL pissed off at him for that....

The depth of your vileness is only matched by the utter emptiness which is your soul. May bad names and smears on your character be heaped upon you without bound or surcease, for it will not relieve by one degree your lack of regard for fellow humans. My name for you will forever be unutterable where good people dwell. Creatures which live in slime and filth look upon you with distaste. May the rest of your life be in interesting times. Ach, ptooey.

I did not list the name of the SK book that committed the vile sin of going full circle... therefore it is not a spoiler.

Therefore, in the soothtell that is the analysis of Stephen King books, I must chain you both within the catafalque of Riders and utilize your blood to assuage the harm that your vile insults have wrought upon myself and my fellow Riders of the Clave.

May a-Jeroth have mercy on your souls as you travel within the Seven Hells.

Yeah, well, don't do it anymore.

GAAAARRGGHGGHHAHATHTHG!!!
I cannot believe... There are no words... GREAHAHGAHTAHTAH!!!
I stopped reading, at the place where stephen king told me to stop, and I was happy with that. I avoided all forums, checked for spoilers, etcetera....
Come on! Which book does that? Ha!!! How many different stephen king book(s) compare to the Covenant stuff in scope. I can only think of one.
GRHEAHAHGAH! *burning pain*

Steven pissed me off so much with the DT series. The first 3 books were works of genius, and the last 4 were just dissappointing. There are 2 SK books that rise above all others. #1 is Insomnia. That is an amazing story and possibly my favorite novel of all time, and a close #2 is The Talisman. The Talisman is in production right now, so look for it on the big screen by the end of the year. It will be awesome if it is done right, just like TCOTC.
Getting back to The DT Series though,

Spoiler

I thought the circlular story was just a big fat lazy ass cop out!

Thanks, Much2Phat, for your support and agreement!

I did not name the book that committed the vile sin!!! JemCheetah, you ASSUME you know which book I am referring to...

"IT" is a rather large tome, a very laborious read, with a dubious payoff at the end... that book comes full circle... I read it once, and immediately wished that I had spent the time picking weeds, digging ditches, etc...

For you to know what lies beyond where SK told you to stop, you had to have peeked!!!

May the Three Corners of Truth have mercy on all of you.

Did you say IT went full circle? I absolutely did not peak. I've just read everything King's ever written as far as fiction novels go, except for of course the last few pages of the last dark tower book.
Listen, if YOU hadn't have read the last bit of The Dark Tower, you would have been able to deduce what you were referring to... but at least I don't know any details.

Spoiler

full circle' is pretty' vague.

<avoids the sneetches being thrown by the Crimson King>

I did not name the book. I did not say what happened in the "secret" pages of DT7. Even SK himself said that some people would not like what was contained therein. I didn't!

I also recommend that you NEVER read those pages either.

Oh, and now you're the one giving away stuff to people who haven't read any of book 7!



(Kidding! I don't care - I've already read spoilers about the ending)

Bwahahahahahaa!!!!

Murrin, you ROCK!

Jem, I think SK should rot in the Seven Hells of a-Jeroth for his cop-out ending of DT7. With a rukh shoved up his a** for good measure.

At least you ended when you did. I read the "secret" pages.... and now I am doomed to a caamora of eternal pain in a fiery lake of lava for my effort. This is not a spoiler, it is an opinion.

Spoiler

THIS is a spoiler! The story goes full circle because it ends as it began, with the phrase, "The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed."

probably the wrong place to be talking bout this but anyway...
i think it was certainly an unexpected ending but it fits the story,

Spoiler

ka is a wheel after all.

I think King meant it, that section at the beginning of Coda. I really think he meant it, and I've went with him for so long, followed him every step of the way. I felt like he was typing to people like me, like it was an actual appeal... I don't know. I just have so many positive feelings about the characters, I don't want their stories to end in my imagination.

I agree that King meant it as well.

I do believe that DT 1 through 4 (4 being best, IMHO) was truly an inspired and original work, destined for greatness. DT 5 through 7, on the other hand, disappointed. It seemed forced, WAY too much attention was paid to other SK characters, stories, and plotlines, which turned the story into a ditch.

Again, just my HO, but I think I will forever just re-read DT4 and let the others gather dust on my shelves.

I disagree... I loved every inch of the whole series. I was with it every step of the way. But I think King has a forum on here.. hehe...

Uh, yeah, you are right... we sure did go WAYYYY OT, didn't we?

Long days and pleasant nights, I beg ya...

Now, we return to the Master's just retribution, turning the Earth into a jail and gallow-fells for leaguing with a-Jeroth.....

seen as this will probably be split soon anway...

(4 being best, IMHO

absolutly agree i loved it

I was holding off on splitting this thread, since the original topic was "coming full circle" and naturally examples of that would be given. I also thought the thread itself would come full circle, which it now appears to be doing. But if you guys want me to split this let me know, and I will do so and move the new thread to Steven King forum.
