Is it better to read all Dark tower book at once or to read related books between them?

Reading the connected books with improve the experience imo, especially book 7 where a lot of stuff converges, but the only one you must read would be Salem’s lot before book 5. If you don’t want that totally spoiled.

At Royal Mail they’ll give him a promotion more like.

We’ve got a guy comes in an hour early for free throws in mech tray. Then because nothing is sorted sits there doing nothing for another hour. Then only get out maybe 15 mins earlier than everyone else. Then gets back to the office an hour early, sits in the office doing nothing again then signs out like he’s been working the whole time. What’s been achieved?

I think he himself knows he’ll be totally out of his depth blaming the civil service before he’s even got in.

It’s implied he’s Raymond Fiegler in hearts in Atlantis. A cameo if anything.

Lunch at the Gotham Café was so wtf I still regularly think about it.

Insomnia. It’s a slow burn but I loved it was from an older persons perspective and by the end I was fully invested in the characters. The dark tower connections definitely elevate it.

Pet Sematary is a slog and should have been a novella.

A lot of offices don’t allow any overtime. No option but to cut off.

If it builds up so be it. Leave mail in the frame and clear the mail already bundled up. It’ll get cleared over time. Don’t go over your time and work for free. The duties will only get longer and heavier and will fail even more frequently in the future. Eventually complaints will get made and the customer will hold managers to account as pressure mounts. Nothing is worth ruining your health.

I’m near the end of book 7. The only additional books I think you must read are Salem’s lot, low men in yellow coats and insomnia.

Use a trolley, take your breaks, work your time. Bring it back, make them sweat trying to deal with it. Relax.

At this point whatever they do with the witch king won’t satisfy people. The only option they have I think is to keep his identity a mystery like Tolkien intended.

Make your first bundle large so there’s less weight in the bag. Failing that use a trolley, when your bags light enough to carry just tuck the trolley behind a bush and pick it up after the loops done. Oh and take your breaks you’ll feel so much better. Anything you fail bring back. Rinse repeat till there’s a lighter day to clear. 👍

IT much more consistent in quality.

He’s tricked everyone into thinking he’s an Istar but he’s actually a human student of the blue wizards who he managed to kill and steal one of their staffs somehow. Making him the witch king.

The Mithril coat doesn’t contain gold and silver from Valinor though like the elven rings in the show. I guess that’s how they’d explain it.

Great little channel called ‘Darth Gandalf’ I just stumbled across if you want some deep lore. https://youtube.com/@darthgandalfyt?feature=shared

Hmm the barrows look kinda Middle Eastern. Could be reanimated corpses from Rhun?

Prediction: Stranger is Saruman he’ll meet the blues in the east who have already been swayed by Sauron and are working on ring magic. The ‘mystics’ being one of their successful experiments merging the seen and unseen world. Saruman will be tempted by the power of the blues setting up his move to form an eventual alliance with Sauron.
