Stephen King clearly has the Darkish Tower on his thoughts in an enormous means.
The creator has been posting on X (previously Twitter) about his eight-book collection for the previous few weeks, seemingly hinting that one other story may very well be on the horizon.
The issue? His posts had been about as imprecise because it’s attainable to get. Or a minimum of they had been up till yesterday.

On Tuesday, the horror legend lastly dropped a touch about what a return to Mid-World would possibly appear to be.
“I feel possibly Mejis, beside the Clear Sea. And America-side,” posted King, in response to a fan sharing his earlier posts and asking “The place are you taking us?”. “I can not cease enthusiastic about Mid-World.”
Mejis, to recap, is a key location within the fourth Darkish Tower novel, Wizard and Glass. It is the place important character Roland Deschain travels to in his youth in what is actually an undercover mission, to seek out out in regards to the actions of political enemy John Farson. “America-side” refers to “our” world, which in King’s novels overlaps and intersects with Roland Deschain’s world.
The indication from King’s newest submit is that he hasn’t began writing something but — he is nonetheless within the concept part. So if we do get to return to the Darkish Tower universe, it seemingly will not be for some time (until Mike Flanagan’s TV adaptation will get there first, after all).
