Instead, he finds Tull, the last stop of civilization. A town of devil grass, desert sand and despair. A town full of nothing, especially mercy. A town where Roland encounters such lost souls as Old Nort, aimlessly wandering the streets when he's not busy chewing mind-numbing weeds and drinking whiskey ? the better to forget every ounce of what he used to be. Then there's Kennerly, the stableman who takes better care of Roland's mule than he does his own daughters. Of most interest to Roland, though, is Allie, the once-pretty barmaid who spent her life in an endless procession of one bad day rolling into a worse one ? until the Man in Black passed through, leaving behind him a town in turmoil and Allie saddled with a fearsome, cursed secret. It may seem Tull is on the very edge of the world, with nothing past the horizon but a steep fall to oblivion. But Roland believes otherwise: that beyond the limits of Tull lies a hidden truth that means everything to the fate of Mid-World. The Man in Black holds the key to that mystery, and Roland is going to keep following him ? even through a trap set in Tull ? to unlock it. Good Condition
