Story links?

**Tonka** · July 29th, 2010

I know Mr. King likes to link stories and characters and it is excellent to read and remember the characters from previous stories. Can people post the links of such stories and characters for me please? I know the walking dude is in a lot of stories and especially Roland himself has been a major contributory to a lot of stories since he protected Mr. King himself as a little boy. I recall him saying Roland has always been around in a majority of his stories even if he hasn't been mentioned. I will read on with interest.

There are quite a few:
The Stand with the walking dude
Rose Madder had DT connections
Gerald's Game has small links with Dolores Claiborne
The Regulators and Desperation are 'sister' stories
Insomnia is linked to the Dark Tower
The Talisman and Black House
ect...

Aren't there a list of links in the library on the main site?

I recently reread Rose Madder and was pleasantly surprised by all the DT links I had evidently passed over on the first read.

No, we've never compiled a list like what the OP has asked about. We do have a list of some of the major connections to The Dark Tower books in the Dark Tower section of the site which might be what you are thinking of.

The Stephen King Universe by Golden, Wagner and Wiater compiles a lot of the links.

A friend of mine worked on a list of connections. It is french, but Google Translate can help you to undestand :
It can be found here :
