Dark Tower - Stephen King

Hmm, it doesn't feel like their The Stand though

Is Kate Pierson their Peter Straub is the question

Is a mod available to ban ye all is actually the question

(which it character is kenneth tho?)

OMG, the discussion over the last several posts engaged the pattern recognition of my brain and, apropos of little else, it just occurred tk me that The Eyes of the Dragon is Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption in fantasy drag. I don't know how I failed to see it before.

The switching of the rapunzel trick for several hundred yards of shite is somewhat of a distracter youd often find

Speaking of The Talisman... https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/steven-spielberg-duffer-bros-team-to-tackle-stephen-kings-talisman-exclusive

That could def work

You know, people like to frown on the later books, but Wolves Of The Calla is pretty damn good

i have an awful feeling that gyac never read the talisman since ffs

Sorry, it's still his Around the Sun

recently started re-reading the talisman after some 30+ years and found myself unable to get past the magical negro (named 'speedy parker' no less! who says shit like 'you weep if it put you easy'!) who sent jack on his way

the whole detta/odetta thing in the dark tower is little more than an excuse to have a character spew the most reductive racist shit possible (but it's okay; she's crazy amirite!)

i don't even know! he doesn't deserve it, but somehow i suspect stephen king means well? but nevertheless his characterization is absolutely and relentlessly racist as fuc
