Brief Summary: Roland and the gang have found Susannah and are so close to reaching the dark tower! Susannah's "baby" Mordred can morph into a disgusting spider and has ran off and hidden from everyone. While hiding Mordred kills Walter, the man in black, which takes a slight load off of Roland's back. Pere Callahan kills himself during a battle so Jake may sneak past the vampires. Roland and the gang find the Breakers and decide to free them while killing all of the guards and people in charge. During this epic battle though, Eddie is shot and killed. Now Oy, Jake, and Roland have returned to America-side to try to save Stephen King from being hit and killed by a car.
My Views So Far: I can't really put to words how amazing this book is. Any questions I had from the previous books are being answered in this one. I was sobbing during the entire chapter when Eddie is dying. The battle scene was hard for me to read because you know someone of the ka-tet is going to die, but you don't know who. I hate that it was Eddie, I wish it could have been Susannah because I don't like her very much.
What I'm hoping for/expecting: I'm really hoping that Jake doesn't die. However, based on the first half I'm kind of expecting everyone except Roland to die. I hope Roland can find the dark tower and save it. I'm expecting Stephen King to get hit by the car because that happened in real life. I'm also expecting Stephen King not to die from the car accident because he didn't actually die. I'm also expecting a lot more badass-ness from Roland and the remainders of the gang.
I love how the rose is so dominant on the cover :)
