Caltrops - Dead Trees





	[quote name="Rightbug"][quote name="Bill Dungsroman"]Book 5, <I>Wolves of the Calla</I>, is finished by Author Vs. Pickup Truck and will be out soon. It's 9 hundy pages, too, since nobody edits King anymore. Also, if you're a completist, you can read a short story (about 100 pages) that takes place during the first half of the first book in the series, when Roland is following the Man in Black, in <I>Everything's Eventual</I>, his latest anthology now in softback. You know, in case you can't find your Foucault, or whatever.

Soon thereafter it occured to me that nobody edits Stephen King anymore. Did the series actually recover from there or is it just sko bourgeiose faggot thing that can only be appreciated by bourgeiose faggots? I think I actually have the third book somewhere. Even in my darkest moments of having to shit really bad and having nothing to read I've reread Hammett rather than pick it up. Mistake on my part? -- Rb[/quote]
