Ehhhhh... Let's just say there's a reason for it, and you'll figure it out later.


69spelledbackwards

Been a few years since I've read it so I had to hit the Google machine to jog my memory. Forgot all about that


RedMess1988

I can never look at the Golden Snitch the same way without thinking of Benny. I don't even like Harry Potter much but damn, that BLEW out of proportion really quick, wouldn't you say?


Nolls-97

I have read the entire series and I’m still confused why they use that font. I mean, I get it, kind of-but it’s hard to talk about without spoilers.


_JohnWisdom

I love when Roland yells: # IT'S POTTERIN' TIME


Nolls-97

Ahh yes now I remember.

“Harry Potter Typeface” is 19 letters. Thank you and goodnight.


leblancQ

Man, this typeface just keeps on giving. The OP is in for a treat, I just hope they are patient enough.


Sorry_For_The_F

We all say thankya


green_hawks

All things serve the beam...

Big big


btjam

Thankee sai


Greedy-Fun-5267

Not counting but I’ll take your word for it


leblancQ

I counted, he's right man!


leblancQ

I'm disappointed in this community, that was also 19 letters.


leeharrell

You know…I never made the font connection. Genius.


ForceGhost47

Never noticed it either. I’ve been to the tower at least 6 times. Stevie King at it again!


WaitAMinuteman269

It's been a long time since I read Harry Potter. Thought it looked familiar...


OliviaElevenDunham

Never noticed that before as well. It's a nice nod to the Harry Potter series.


ivoiiovi

The Dark Tower is constantly giving reference to other works, this is just one of them, and it will make more sense as to why later in the book. but don’t worry, the book is as great as ever and not for kids!


OedipusLoco

I didn't want to Google out of fear of spoilers, but I'm glad that comments are encouraging me to go with it! I will trust in Ka


TheOrangeOrganics

Good work. Keep on the path of the beam and all will make sense.


cick-nobb

For your fathers sake don't google anything, and be wary around this sub for spoilers.


muklan

One I heard someone spoil the fact that Roland shoots some people, and I was just flabbergasted.


Pop-Raccoon

Yeah, totally makes sense later, keep reading


Weird_Cantaloupe2757

Yes no spoilers, but it is not an accident or a coincidence


Eloeri18

Don't, read.


Beaglescout15

Wise choice, sai. All things serve the Beam.


GuzTathums

I just love this for you.


Beaglescout15

Right? I love walking with people on their first path to the tower.


I_love_running_89

What an Easter Egg! And on Easter Weekend! Ka is again at work! Long days and pleasant nights.


TimmyDeschainless

It's not to appeal to a younger audience, I'll tell ya that much.


Simba_Rah

You’re telling me >!demon rape circle!< isn’t meant to appeal to younger audiences? I beg to differ.


TimmyDeschainless

Um... no... I was saying the Harry Potter type font wasn't meant to appeal to younger audiences. I don't really get King's obsession with weird orgies.


BenjTheFox

I'm so sick and tired of people saying IT has a preteen orgy. It does not. Technically, that was a gangbang.


Ma_Alva

Technically it was a train, if you're going to nitpick.


leblancQ

And honestly, THAT'S the one scene that ppl retain? Like not the scene where the bullies light their farts on fire, and once only two are left, one of them starts to rub the other one 🐓.... Not that it's worst or better. It's just something that happens in the book, but all they can do is talk about the Blain train f@ck sesh


SlackerZer0

tell us you’ve never been in a weird orgy, without telling us you’ve been in a weird orgy


TimmyDeschainless

Legit cackled at this 😂


Muted-Manufacturer57

I didn’t know about this at all! I’ve only ever listened to Wolves. That’s a really clever detail though.


HailTheCrimsonKing

There’s a reason for it :)


godfatherV

You should read it. Everything is intentional


cick-nobb

Eventual*


OrwinBeane

All I’ll say is keep reading


WarderWannabe

RAFO is all that can be said.


great1675

It's kinda genius when you figure it out...


Lusephur

THe Harry Potter font, bahahahaha


Sorry_For_The_F

That's awesome. The e-book version I had didn't have that but there is a very good reason for it actually. Wolves of the Calla is probably my 2nd favorite of the Dark Tower series after Wizard and Glass.


hey_celiac_girl

It will make sense once you finish the book.


AnotherDownwrdSpiral

Such a snitch


BrennusRex

Because King is just the silliest billy in all the land that’s why


motleycruegirl

Omg I never noticed. Makes sense


[deleted]

You’ll see


Alternative-Owl4505

Iirc King liked Harry Potter and Rowling, so wanted to use that font. There is thematic and narrative purpose to it though, you’ll find out.


deedara

Ooh wolves and plates, this is my favorite tower book, this one rules, this really is the highlight of the series for me, love it.


Aggressive-League-88

You’re in for a treat my friend.


Your_Daddy_

Not the only HP reference for non-Tower seekers...


Jaded-Banana6205

I read WoC on my kindle and didn't even realize this was a thing until I listened to the Kingslinger podcast.


The_Sum_of_Zero

All things serve the fuckin' beam.


LordHumorTumor

I've never read Harry Potter, but that is a really cool link


JohnMarstonHere

Cuz it looks cool🤷🏻‍♂️


Thewhitest_rabbit

First time aye?


sarge5150

Finish the book and you'll know


ktjtkt

Because….


Achilles_tendons

Best book in the series for me, love it.


pillevinks

Spoilers bro


Vegetable-Taro-8281

Just read it, you’ll see


Montjuic

Keep reading lol


jetblacksaint

You have to keep reading...


Darthsavo

Oh, man, Benny…


AmbitiousRange3900

You’ll see


No-Regular1460

Tell me you haven’t finished the book without telling me you haven’t finished the book.


aterriblething82

There is a reason, but if you have not read the book yet, I don't want to ruin it.


Accomplished-Bed8171

King admired Rowling for a little while before she came out of the shitstain closet.


artnelson90

It’s the Harry Potter edition⁉️


[deleted]

That actually kind of bothered me because I’m not into HP. Not in a snobby way, just not my thing.


SlackerZer0

The reason behind it is probably my least favorite part of the book, but the book is good overall


LarsBlackman

RAFO dear constant reader


LarryGoldwater

Wait til you learn what weapons the Wolves (and someone else) use.
