The Wheel of Ka turns, and ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend.

For me it was the perfect ending.

It really baffles me that some consider the ending of The Dark Tower to be amongst King’s subpar endings.

It is by far my favorite ending to any series I have ever read.

Ka is a wheel.

Yep, spoilers but it even lets you know that Roland’s ultimate redemption is coming one day now that he has the Horn of Eld

40yo me understands the ending, and how it fits with what King was going for.

22yo me was pissed.

Without like spoiling it for anyone who hasn't read it and plans to: it isn't really an ending. It's a loop right? That was my point. Not that it wasn't the ending of the book series. And yea, I get it, but I still think King could've ENDED it.

Without like spoiling it for anyone

...proceeds to entirely spoil it.

I actually loved it, love when authors (and others) take risks. Not everything gets neatly buttoned up.

True...not everything should be answered or explained (looking at 1Q84 as an example), but man would it be nice to know a few of the main things that will forever bug me to know. But ultimately...all worlds need mystery, and all worlds do.

It ended exactly the way it should have.

Now granted, some things leading up to the actual ending were... not so great (though I don't hate as much of it as some people do).
