Is there going to be a third?

Hi,

Well, woo hoo!!!

Thankee for the information (and the nag LOL), Ms Mod - VERY much appreciated!

Long days and pleasant nights

I second that "woo hoo!"

Seriously, been a long time coming! Monsieur's Straub and King are nothing short of magic together.

Thanks for the info. I am always excited to hear of another SK read.. He is the absolute best

I haven't read either the Talisman or Black House yet. Seems like I'm always reading something and I can't squeeze them in.

They're well worthwhile. Especially The Talisman for me although I liked Black house too. The interesting thing is, people tend to class them together but the second book isn't really a sequel in the strict sense of the word. It's a very different kind of story, but also good in it's own way.

I'm very much looking forward to the third book. That post by Ms Mod was 2006 by the way, hee hee. I think Mr. King and Mr. Straub will get around to it eventually though. I suspect we might see a eighth Dark Tower book first though at this rate. Which would be most welcome too.

I hope with the third book we see more adventures in the Territories though. Black House mostly happened this side, and when he did cross over, it wasn't always the Territories. Come to think of it even with The Talisman there wasn't as much Territories stuff as one might think, although significantly more than Black House.

I hope a third book will make any connection between Mid/All-World and the Territories more clear too. I remember Bev Vincent considered the Territories to be a borderland region of Mid-World in his book although I personally interpreted those DT related passages in Black House differently. For one thing the feel of the place is somewhat different although both are vital places in their own way. And the Territories is a smaller tighter place with the close horizon and all. Mid-World/All-world seems to be stretching apart.

Went off on a bit of a waffle there. Heh.

Clear a spot in your schedule! You've been missing out on a great story with some awesome characters you will never forget!!!

I am really, really, really, really, really looking forward to a third installment.

I agree with John Dalglish: Henry Leyden is the coolest cat in all of King-Straub-dom.

He'd better have a freakin' twinner in The Territories.

I had not heard about a third installment! What fabulous news! And I agree wholeheartedly: Henry is the coolest cat and he'd better have a twinner!!!!

I can't even guess what the third one will be about. The second one felt.. Solved. Oh well, have to wait and see...

[randallFlaggfan1]

Yes! I am agog for the third installment!!! I recently read that King/Straub will begin working on it in about a year.

Just finished reading Black House last night. Great, great read. Can't wait for the third installment. If I had to guess the story will focus around Ty and Jack. Excellent.
