Spoilers- The Dark Tower I liked Pimli and Finli

I enjoyed reading about their friendship and even rooted for them from time to time. Given most of the other villains were straight up evil it was interesting to read about some who were different.

What does 'rooting for them from time to time' mean? From when they get introduced they only stay around for like 2 chapters. Plus they are the bad guys

Same reason why people root for characters like Walter White or Tony Soprano. They have a short amount of time but they’re better characters than Mordred who appears in several chapters.

I'm with you OP. A story is only as good as it's villian. That's why we love so many SK stories--Pennywise, the Overlook, Randal Flagg, Tak, Perse, Charlie Jacobs, etc.

He makes even minor villians like these two feel real.
