The End is In Sight!

More on The Dark Tower... So close to the end, but it's not getting any better. Check this out:

One of the characters in the series, Susannah Dean -- who was introduced in the 2nd book, The Drawing of the Three, as Odetta Holmes -- was pushed in front of a subway train when she was younger. Due to this, she lost her legs. Yet, on page 315 of The Dark Tower, King writes this sentence: "...Susanna leaped to her feet and began to scream again."

Leaped to her feet, he says. Just a figure of speech? Maybe, but a most unfortunate choice of words, don't you think?

Sloppy, Steve. Reeeaal sloppy.

Ugh, I can't wait to finish this crap.
