His book about Biff (Jesus's childhood friend) is fall on the floor laughing material. I have also met him in person, and trust me, he is so cool! Cindy (Coriander in the game)

So many people have spoken so highly of him, I figured it would be okay to take the chance. His descriptions crack me up! Oh, and on a completely unrelated note, I lost my connection on VMK and can't seem to get back on at the moment. You'll have to tell me how the "sit-in" went! <g>

Picked it up at the grocery store last night and just about done with it.

Does this book connect to the Dark Tower series? Where does it fit?

Very interesting stuff, I couldn't stop thinking about the last book for days after I finished. That said, I haven't read "The Black House", I started and with the advance clues I new I didn't want to go any further. Although I remember enjoying The Talisman quite a bit.
