I guess This is a tribute to SK's writting skills with regaurd to character development, but a fair way before the end of Wizard and Glass, I had a fairly strong emotional attachment to Susan! Is it just me. Did anyone else fall victim to his literary trappings!

She wasn't a completed character. That's probably why I also loved her in my way.
She's why I'd rank DT4 very near the top of my King's List.

In my opinion, Susan was one of King's strongest characters BECAUSE he left her open and let US fill in the blanks. We all got to personalize her.

I had a crush on Edy. Always was a sucker for those handsome big mouthed wiseguys...

reading this book young really helped me attach to all of the characters in Roland's tet. I think the attachment to susan may have even been a little inappropriate

my favorite character is Oy ( i hope it is really his name, because i've only read it in french, and in french, it's Ote), Jake's pet. Even if i'm a woman, i fell in love with Susan too. This character is a powerful one, it broke my heart the way she...vanished. She's the only one who could touch Roland the way she did. But every character are worth reading the book, it's the entire cast that makes this story a classic.

When I was reading the part where Roland watched Susan burn I wanted to jump into the book and try to help. :sad: I don't like feeling powerless to do anything. It sucks

I'm nearing the end of "Wizard and Glass", and I have seen Susans' end coming for awhile. I only hope she reappears somewhere along the line in the remaining books. I Remember Jake saying something like "There are more worlds than this one" right before he died the 2nd time, so I hope this is true for Susan as well.
