Stephen King's most fascinating character gets a little more screen time in this inter-season break. What happens when King breaks from horror to write a young adult fantasy novel? A lot of people complain, but we don't. Autumn Greer and Zack Johnson come along to talk about Prince Peter's escape from the Needle, and the machinations of In-World's least favorite magician in residence.Links:In the Desert - Wikipedia

It's time to meet the Man in Black. But how many of his answers are lies? This week, Kole Ross is joined by Evan Jones Thorne, Jeremy Greer, and Murph Murphy to talk about the final chapter of The Gunslinger, where Roland finally gets what he bargained Jake's life for. In a Golgotha that faces the sea, over a night that lasts for years, we get a taste of the tower, and a sense for what a son-of-a-bitch Walter is. Thank you so much for listening to this season of the show. After a small interlude to talk about The Eyes of the Dragon, we will return with discussion about The Drawing of the Three.Special Guests: Evan Jones Thorne, Jeremy Greer, and Murph Murphy.Links: Sombra Group on the App Store Sombra Group - Android Apps on Google Play Watch Griffin McElroy's Vine, "#roundabout"

Follow us through these dark tunnels, where we learn of betrayals both past and present. This week, Kole Ross is joined by Brayton Cameron, Bryan May, and Stephen Veilleux to talk about the fourth chapter of The Gunslinger, where Roland and Jake follow the Man in Black into the tunnels beneath the mountains. What waits for them is weeks of darkness, rusted remnants of the world that was, and a railroad push-car that just won't shut up. Oh, also a look into Roland's past, and the climax of this very book.Links: Amazon.com: charlie the choo choo The Fantastical Imaginationdom of Bryan May Megaten Marathon - A Shin Megami Tensei and Persona Podcast The Platformers by The Platformers on iTunes Brayton Cameron (@BraytonJC) | Twitter Stephen Veilleux (@fromsoftjunkie) | Twitter

Roland and Jake climb higher, and the weight of prophecy starts to become kind of a drag. This week, Kole Ross is joined by Autumn Greer, Murph Murphy, and Stephen Veilleux to talk about chapter 3 of The Gunslinger, which details Roland and Jake's rise out of the desert and into the mountains. There, in the decadent greenery, we see Jake and Roland get closer, but we also see the beginning of the cracks in their partnership... as Roland learns from a succubus oracle that Jake's sacrifice is his key to the Tower.
