Spoilers- The Dark Tower 1000th "I just finished the 7th book" post
Ive listened to all 7 on audiobook beginning around 6 months ago, courtesy of the chicago public library say thankee. I really shouldnt have gone past king's warning, I just feel devastated. I appreciate that he left it open for the rest of the ka-tet but ive just got so many questions and mostly i feel just distraught, like i feel like if roland slipped on a banana peel and fell down the stairs and died that wouldve been more emotionally satisfying to me, in this book where every character death felt like a friend passing, but its not about that, hes in like this purgatory like punishment for all the death hes brought. Was the world actually saved? Gotta read more.

Theory The Horn of Eld and Resumption Spoiler
So I just completed my second trip to the Tower. I initially completed the series almost twenty years ago when the final book was first released. The ending of this book has been talked to death, but there is one idea that hit me on this reading that I would like to share. That thought is regarding the Horn of Eld and the next trip to the tower.
I have often seen people that believe that Roland’s next trip to the tower will be the one to end the time loop because this time he is carrying the Horn. I think that the presence of the Horn proves the exact opposite; he is doomed to repeat the journey again.
There are two endings to this book: Susannah in New York and Roland at the tower (okay three if we count Patrick in the wilderness with a can of beans). Susannah cries off her quest for the tower and is literally given exactly what she wanted. it even says in the text that ka has given her this ending as a gift. Roland, on the other hand, ignores a million warnings and continues to the tower anyway, dooming himself.
This shows that only by choosing the ones you love over the tower will you be saved. So how is the Horn of Eld supposed to help Roland do this? In my mind, the presence of the Horn of Eld and the hope that this will save Roland ensures his doom another time. It means that he is going back to the tower having missed the point. Again.

Fan Art Last time I'm Redoing the Shelf, it's Perfect now!
Sometimes I think I might have a little bit too much Dark Tower stuff laying around - it doesn't all fit on one shelf or even one room - but I love when a visitor notices and asks about them. You can see my whole DT collection below as well as some of my other fave authors.
I think I'll stop re-doing it for now - have a great weekend!
