Of course I do. *NM* Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 08/01/2010 07:25:31 PM
Martin is the strongest of the 3, Goodkind is...well, mentioned, which is about as much as he deserves, and Jordan is characterised as fun fluff.

Farah Mendlesohn and Edward James on RJ, Goodkind, and Martin Larry - 07/12/2009 02:48:45 AM 1511 Views
Pretty sure Nynaeve did not have red hair. Also pretty sure she wasn't a priestess. Ghavrel - 07/12/2009 02:54:23 AM 780 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 595 Views
Wow! I was completely wrong about Goodkind. Gher - 07/12/2009 04:36:28 AM 630 Views

I suppose it all depends on what the purpose of their book is. Legolas - 07/12/2009 10:04:48 AM 565 Views
Overall, a valid assessment. Tom - 07/12/2009 02:07:47 PM 598 Views
Nynaeve doesn't have red hair! She has brown hair! Ghavrel - 07/12/2009 09:29:07 PM 605 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 595 Views
I mentioned her not being a priestess in my earlier post. Ghavrel - 09/12/2009 03:23:12 AM 572 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 556 Views
Of course I do. *NM* Ghavrel - 08/01/2010 07:25:31 PM 259 Views
She's a priestess archetype, though. *NM* Ouranid - 09/12/2009 09:43:50 PM 242 Views
Why wasn't I informed about the chipmunks? Werthead - 07/12/2009 11:56:51 PM 600 Views
But... it's the sweetest scene ever. StormCrow - 08/12/2009 07:40:51 PM 598 Views
Agree for the most part. When does the book officially come out? StormCrow - 08/12/2009 07:51:39 PM 696 Views
Book's been out since the summer, in the UK anyways Larry - 09/12/2009 02:33:05 AM 566 Views
So their tone *is* out of place, then? Legolas - 09/12/2009 10:52:12 AM 558 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 541 Views
Erikson is like Martin? That's ridiculous! fionwe1987 - 09/12/2009 01:43:18 AM 783 Views
Influenced isn't the same as 'like'. Jacob - 21/12/2009 06:04:53 PM 589 Views
So, you're right because you're right? fionwe1987 - 28/12/2009 03:25:33 AM 607 Views
Only because I'm willing to be honest even about things that I enjoy. *NM* Jacob - 07/01/2010 06:00:02 PM 226 Views
What rot... fionwe1987 - 07/01/2010 09:54:13 PM 614 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 505 Views
Actually, aSoIaF has one of the more accurate depictions of feudalism in modern fantasy. *NM* Ghavrel - 08/01/2010 07:33:22 PM 242 Views
I agree, but that wasn't the point... fionwe1987 - 09/01/2010 03:11:16 AM 555 Views
Nah... randfandom - 12/12/2009 08:05:49 AM 625 Views
