Susannah tries and fails to kill Mordred, but she does succeed in meeting up with Jake, who travels through the door to Fedic. Once born, Mordred transforms into a spider monster and devours Mia. She separates so she can give birth to Mordred Deschain, an Antichrist-like being fathered by both Roland and the Crimson King. Meanwhile, in Fedic, Susannah is separated from the evil spirit of Mia, which has been possessing her.

In the fight, Callahan dies but saves Jake in the process. There, two of Roland’s allies, Jake Chambers and Father Callahan, fight off many evil-doers and make their way to a door to another world called Fedic, where their friend Susannah is trapped. The Dark Tower installment begins in New York City at an evil vampire bar called the Dixie Pig, where demons roast human flesh while surrounded by doors to other dimensions. Flagg works on behalf of the Crimson King, the ultimate personification of evil and a stand-in for Satan himself.

His nemesis is a demonic sorcerer known as The Man in Black and later revealed to be Randall Flagg, the antagonist of another King novel, The Stand. Time flows irregularly, entire nations vanish overnight, and the sun and other celestial objects do not behave according to established physical rules. Roland’s quest is to reach the titular tower in hopes of repairing his world, which seems to be suffering from some kind of rift in space and time. He lives in Mid-World, which is inspired in equal parts by the American Old West and Middle Earth from J. The series’ protagonist, Roland, belongs to an ancient order of “gunslingers”-think the Knights of the Round Table meets Clint Eastwood’s character from old Sergio Leone Westerns. It recounts the final leg of Roland Deschain’s journey to a tower of mysterious yet enormous metaphysical and metaphorical significance. It is the seventh official installment of The Dark Tower series and represents the conclusion to the epic anthology of books. The Dark Tower is a 2004 fantasy novel written by legendary horror author Stephen King.
