But... it's the sweetest scene ever. StormCrow Send a noteboard - 08/12/2009 07:40:51 PM
Five years of quality satiricial bashing, and no-one mentioned the chipmunks-as-torture-maniac-pacifiers?


Infallible Richard teaches them to feed the little woodland creatures to teach them compassion (or something like that). IIRC one of them dies, rather painfully, and remembers the chipmunks and what he tought her there.

Can we petition for a vomit smiley?

It's almost as bad as the chicken-that's-not-a-chicken. I'm surprised that didn't get referenced.

Pretty sure Nynaeve did not have red hair. Also pretty sure she wasn't a priestess. Ghavrel - 07/12/2009 02:54:23 AM 849 Views
I think it was a tongue-in-cheek reference to an archetype, but yes, there are some errors here Larry - 07/12/2009 02:56:00 AM 632 Views
Wow! I was completely wrong about Goodkind. Gher - 07/12/2009 04:36:28 AM 696 Views

I suppose it all depends on what the purpose of their book is. Legolas - 07/12/2009 10:04:48 AM 633 Views
Overall, a valid assessment. Tom - 07/12/2009 02:07:47 PM 665 Views
Nynaeve doesn't have red hair! She has brown hair! Ghavrel - 07/12/2009 09:29:07 PM 664 Views
She's not a priestess, either. Other than "red-haired priestess" the rest was 100% valid. Tom - 08/12/2009 12:39:07 AM 657 Views
I mentioned her not being a priestess in my earlier post. Ghavrel - 09/12/2009 03:23:12 AM 634 Views
Don't you think that, if that were corrected, the entries would be pretty much valid? Tom - 09/12/2009 09:12:55 PM 617 Views
Of course I do. *NM* Ghavrel - 08/01/2010 07:25:31 PM 287 Views
She's a priestess archetype, though. *NM* Ouranid - 09/12/2009 09:43:50 PM 268 Views
Why wasn't I informed about the chipmunks? Werthead - 07/12/2009 11:56:51 PM 666 Views

Agree for the most part. When does the book officially come out? StormCrow - 08/12/2009 07:51:39 PM 768 Views
Book's been out since the summer, in the UK anyways Larry - 09/12/2009 02:33:05 AM 634 Views
So their tone *is* out of place, then? Legolas - 09/12/2009 10:52:12 AM 620 Views
Point taken. Despite not being the target audience, I'd still like to take a look at it. StormCrow - 09/12/2009 10:04:38 PM 604 Views
Erikson is like Martin? That's ridiculous! fionwe1987 - 09/12/2009 01:43:18 AM 850 Views
Influenced isn't the same as 'like'. Jacob - 21/12/2009 06:04:53 PM 656 Views
So, you're right because you're right? fionwe1987 - 28/12/2009 03:25:33 AM 667 Views
Only because I'm willing to be honest even about things that I enjoy. *NM* Jacob - 07/01/2010 06:00:02 PM 254 Views
What rot... fionwe1987 - 07/01/2010 09:54:13 PM 681 Views
I think fionwe has a point - it's not some kind of literature/non-literature divide. Legolas - 08/01/2010 08:37:31 PM 576 Views
Actually, aSoIaF has one of the more accurate depictions of feudalism in modern fantasy. *NM* Ghavrel - 08/01/2010 07:33:22 PM 264 Views
I agree, but that wasn't the point... fionwe1987 - 09/01/2010 03:11:16 AM 616 Views
