    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Not sure... Set towards the middle of the story arc. Reviews seem to be good!

    Found this.

    http://www.stephenking.com/darktower...e_keyhole.html

    Doesn't sound so bad, just Roland telling the Ka-Tet some stories of his past while they are holed up in a storm (he did this a few times in the series, so it doesn't seem out of place/character).

    (you can read the first 5 pages on the link as well, I'll give it a spin later).
