Just finished the series and as a recent convert to fantasy, and previously not a SK fan, wow! Ive been fixated on the story for about the last 5 months, and now ive finished feel like ive lost good friends lol (maybe a tad obssessive). However for a story that has consumed so much of my life and had me in tears (death of eddie jake, oy!), than I just dont feel the ending did the story justice.... That kinda the whole read (a great journey tho it was) kinda culminated in nothing. I cant really suggest an ending as I wudnt have swapped that ending for some bad hollywood style ending where Roland meets God (Gan) or something equally bad. Ive got a few theories as to the meaning of different things towards the end, and I see how SK is attempting to say something about good and evil, redemption etc, the fact that he now has the horn, might get there next time due to his understanding that people matter etc but just feel more of something, anything, happening at the dark tower itself needed
