King announces eigth Dark Tower novel "The Wind Through the Keyhole"; I choke a bitch

[Magus]

Okay, so no, I didn't choke a bitch, namely hunting down King and getting my strangulation on, but I was about to when reading about this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Win...gh_the_Keyhole

But from what I read there in his little quote it's sounding more like a spin-off and interquel than something directly impactful/added-on to the already gargantuan series that he took a hundred years to write and barely even finished...I seriously laughed/choked at his saying that the seven books already written are really only parts of an even longer uber-novel. I don't know whether to laugh or cry, really.

I'm now fairly behind it since it appears to be something that is in the "prequel" time before Roland creates the second ka-tet, actually sounds pretty cool, and is an interquel of some sorts.
