Neste volume sete, o leitor poderá conhecer o desfecho da missão implacável de Roland Deschain para chegar à Torre Negra. O pistoleiro Roland é obcecado por uma enorme corrente de energia que emana da torre que ele busca - e que precisa ser resgatada, pois está enfraquecendo. No decorrer da saga, Roland recruta um viciado em drogas, uma mulher sem pernas, um padre amaldiçoado e um 'filho', além de um animal inventado, o trapalhão Oi, para ser seu ka-tet, ou bando. Este o acompanhará na missão para achar - e salvar - a torre das mãos do Rei Rubro e seus aliados, cuja missão é a destruição da torre e do mundo. ( )
N 1970, when he was 22, Stephen King wrote a sentence he liked: ''The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed.'' It's an innocent sentence -- pulpy and suggestive -- but it grew to become a monster. As the first line in the ''Dark Tower'' series, it begins a story King intended to be the longest popular novel in history. With the publication of ''The Dark Tower VII,'' the series has topped the 4,000-page mark and, mercifully, reached its conclusion.
King's "The Dark Tower" is the culmination of a saga that spans 3,000 pages, seven primary volumes, at least 15 ancillary ones and more than three decades of effort on the part of its author.

Not hear? When noise was everywhere! it tolled / Increasing like a bell. Names in my ears / Of all the lost adventurers, my peers -- / How such a one was strong, and such was bold, / And such was fortunate, yet each of old / Lost, lost! one moment knelled the woe of years. // There they stood, ranged along the hillsides, met / To view the last of me, a living frame / For one more picture! In a sheet of flame / I saw them and I knew them all. And yet / Dauntless the slug-horn to my lips I set, / And blew. 'Childe Roland to the Dark Tower came.' -- Robert Browning, "Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came"
I was born / Six-gun in my hand, / behind a gun/ I'll make my final stand. -- Bad Company
What have I become? / My sweetest friend / Everyone I know / Goes away in the end / You could have it all / My empire of dirt / I will let you down / I will make you hurt. -- Trent Reznor

He was aware that his hands had rolled themselves into fists, but only because he could feel his carefully cared-for nails biting into his palms.
And will I tell you that these three lived happily ever after? I will not, for no one ever does. But there was happiness. And they did live.
A man who can't bear to share his habits is a man who needs to quit them.
Do any of us, except in our dreams, truly expect to be reunited with our hearts' deepest loves, even when they leave us only for minutes, and on the most mundane of errands? No, not at all. Each time they go from our sight we in our secret hearts count them as dead. Having been given so much, we reason, how could we expect not to be brought as low as Lucifer for the staggering presumption of our love?
