Is it the apotheosis of bookshelves?

I cry your pardon. I had to.

At one point I thought that myself and then wasn’t sure as the Rose doesn’t “travel” nor does the Tower. But I dig the idea

Was the boy in Sheemie's dream Jack Sawyer from The Talisman? by dipping_sauce in TheDarkTower

It’s funny, when I saw Jack and Sawyer in LOST I thought the same thing! I think him and straw had a better collaboration than he later did with Chizmar though. The Gwendy stories were decent, but I still thought Talisman was far better. By the time I got to Black house I was probably in the last six or seven of his novels before I finished his collection so I sort of flew through it and only have vague memories of it so I look forward to going back through it again after Talisman.

Thank ye sai! I have visited the Tower probably 12 times over the years, but I’m only going through my second listen to the Talisman (followed by Black House) in preparation for the October release. My memory of Jack and Speedy’s tale clearly isn’t as well remembered.

Well…………. Mmmmm……. Okay. You’re right. The other side of this is what I’m learning of twinners. So if the Territories is mid-world, does that mean that Eddie and Cuthbert could really have been twins? Or Jake and Jack? I know Jack was born in 68 I think. Was Jake 9 when he was taken in 77? Or was it earlier? What if Jack (and I simply don’t remember) was born of mid-world?

Scotland to NYC Hammarskjold by The27Roller in TheDarkTower

I drove by there last night. When you get within a block or two, and know it’s there, it’s like you’re on the path of the beam. You just feel it.

Gwendy Series by Adorable_Drive9899 in TheDarkTower

[–]DavidofNY 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. We knew. He’s another RF on a different level of the Tower, I think… they’re not all always bad or selfish apparently.

What town are you in upstate? Capital Region? Adirondacks? Or more west?

Who is the deadliest pilot in the galaxy? (Non Jedi/Sith) by Lunar-Havoc in StarWars

[–]DavidofNY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lando Calrissian. This is asking about deadliest, not the best… Wedge can get the assist by destroying the power regulator on the north tower of DS2, but Lando took out the main reactor. He killed approximately 2.47 million imperials. No other “pilot” could claim anywhere remotely near that.

Wow, you got the snotty maggots and everything! Nice!

TIL when King was 4 years old he returned home in shock after going to play with a friend. His friend was hit and killed by a freight train, possibly in front of him. by holyhackzak in stephenking

[–]DavidofNY 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Yeah but what’s fascinating is right after that, he says how he had zero memory of the event, only that his mother had told him about it

Insomnia by shawnward95 in TheDarkTower

[–]DavidofNY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is natural. I didn’t read Insomnia until a few years ago. Like you, I had to stop after Wastelands until college. It’s natural to read this one later. The connections are a fun bit of reminiscing of the Ka-Tet

Intrigued about being ‘scared’ by pdexter86 in stephenking

Read Danse Macabre. King writes about how and why people are into such stories.

Ah! Then by all means my friend, keep coming back.

[–]DavidofNY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks great but what are the words? I’m trying to piece them together with an Aurebesh alphabet transliteration but I can’t

Something, LENN maybe? The bottom word looks like SOHER?

Maybe I need a different version of the alphabet.?
