I might spoil you if you haven't read The Talisman if I get too into it.

I'll just say I have Big Fat Issues with the death of Henry Leyden (another one of my favorite fictional characters ever, I cried for about two straight hours). And that King & Straub pulled a similar stunt in The Talisman so it pissed me off a LOT to see it in the sequel.

(Also, I was really annoyed by the device (or whatever you call it) of speaking to the reader in the narrative. It was annoying and took me out of the story every time it happened... I'm pretty sure King's done it in other novels, too, but I hadn't really read him for at least five years before I started reading the DT series.)
