Hey, forgive me if this has been discussed / posted earlier... but I have something to observe:

We all know how King's books all tie together somehow... Richard Fannin / Ageless Stranger being Randall Flagg in The Stand; Louis Creed going to dig up Gage and noticing the Insomniac's window on in that apartment... etc...etc... etc...

Anyway, in Wolves, the second time the Ka-tet goes Todash, they see the "Vagrant Dead" in NYC. One of them was a little girl in a blue dress with her head all busted up. I think this is / was Louis Creed's cousin Ruthie from Pet Sematary. Remember that? Louis worked for his uncle, who was a mortician, and his uncles daughter (his cousin) Ruthie, was killed when some kid got the keys to a payloader and was joyriding, and crashed into the car Louis's uncle and cousin Ruthie were in, killing Ruthie.

Discuss.

Interesting question. I read Pet Sematary lots of years ago and I can hardly remember it so I don't have any opinion.

Im pretty sure that Flagg is a character in The Eyes of The Dragon as well.

Yeah... there are a LOT of little things. In Wolves of Calla, when Roland is talking to Eisenhart; Roland rolls a smoke from the fresh tobacco he got from Callahan, and Eisenhart pops a match alight with his thumbnail to light Roland's smoke... Remember Jud Crandall doing the same thing in Pet Sematary to light the Chesterfields he smoked?

"The old have their tricks..." says Lou Creed.

It's a really great book. SK wrote it to his children. It's like a fairytale but for that it's really good.
