Big SK fan with an old forgetful brain

[Augie69]

Hello to all,
First question: Dark Tower V (Wolves of the Calla)
When Eddie visits Tower in his bookstore, Tower shows him a note from his great, great....grandfather's will. I believe his name was Stefan Toren. The note has Roland's name, etc. on it. Is there any connection to this name or note in any of the other DT books or any other SK works? Thanks loads!

Looked up Stefan Toren in Robin Furth's Dark Tower: Revised Complete Concordance. The will is mentioned again in Song of Susannah. That's all I found with a quick look. Others may know more, but I don't want to spoil too much.

Welcome to the SKMB, Augie. I hope you like it here...stick around, make some friends.
I am sure someone around here can either answer your question or direct you to a place to find the answer.

Welcome. Everything (or almost everything) in the Stephen King universe is connected. So the answer is a tentative yes.

As Spidey said, read on.

Don't have my Dark Tower Concordance (by Robin Furth) handy but it might be in there under the entry for Stefan Toren.

....as post #5 indicates, it is listed in Robin's work-just doesn't appear to have any detail...I just took the whole thing as the literary equivalent of stage dressing...

Duh...end of my day is my only excuse as I usually try to make sure someone else hasn't answered first.

...wasn't trying to rub your nose in it sweets, just commenting again on it being a window dressing detail...
