    Yes - it is included in Book VII in its entirety.
    Hm. Is it interwoven into the narrative, or is it presented in a sort of preface or chapter break?

    It's included as an appendix. There are dozens of literary references throughout the series. Some are more obvious than others.

    Quote Quoting Donald Glover
    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    Deleted my response expressing initial hesitation. Still hesitant (Howard? Roland a Spaniard?), but we'll see.

    I'd be super uber happy if Barry Pepper was Eddie. For some reason I always imagined him as Eddie.

    I'll tell you what's going to be the hardest - Oy. Oh, Oy...man.

    I mean, come on, regardless of who they cast, is there any way they're clearing the hurdle that is Ron Howard's mediocre direction? My intuition is no.

    I'm pretending that someone else is directing.

    Can you imagine the awesomeness of these movies being directed by John Hillcoat?

    It seems that Javier Bardem is nearly locked in to play Roland.

    Back on as an HBO series. Bardem apparently still attached. But they're still looking for a studio to make a movie too.

    Weird fucking development.

    Unless they get a good director to helm this, just let the project die. Seriously. Oh and of course the cast has to be spot on, and the talk of changing the race of one of the key characters needs to end, now.

    Rumor of the last two days: Aaron Paul may be playing Eddie Dean

    Normally I don't care about these casting speculations but...Aaron fucking Paul.

    Seriously. I'd never thought of Neesons before, but Paul seems such a natural fit to Eddie. And now I'm thinking about Eddie Dean. And now I'm realizing it's been years since I reread the series.
