/tGS: These are damned good books. LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 27/11/2010 02:22:05 AM
I mean woah. I care again. I'm passionate about WoT again.
I actually want to know what happens next, not just because it's the Last Battle. It's amazing how much more exciting the finish line looks when you aren't plodding deliberately on towards it!!

ye God I actually laughed with giddy excitement at these books for the first time in years!!


Stuff your time lines. We're goin' to WAR, BABY! WAAAARRRRR!!!!


((As a side note, a lot of people have mentioned the bridging between tGS and ToM. If you read the two books right after another like I did, it is an incredibly smooth and sensible transition and I encourage you to take this into consideration. I hardly felt like I switched books.))
Still Empress of the Poofy Purple Pillow Pile Palace!!
Continued Love of my Aussie <3

Disagree strongly on the time line issue - TOM showed what a mistake splitting by 'clusters' was IMO ajfurst - 27/11/2010 07:24:55 AM 806 Views

I agree with this as well. RandAllThor - 27/11/2010 06:31:37 PM 811 Views
Splitting it this way was the only realistic choice Zeratul - 29/11/2010 01:58:52 PM 673 Views
Disagree - plus COT lacked almost anything full stop ajfurst - 30/11/2010 12:03:24 AM 845 Views

It will be better than CoT, sure, but still not good enough to appease most fans Zeratul - 30/11/2010 06:20:38 PM 833 Views
In any case you can see why RJ wanted one book ajfurst - 01/12/2010 01:41:56 AM 705 Views

I had no problem following the jumps. LadyLorraine - 29/11/2010 05:05:01 PM 666 Views
Yeah, anyone who found this bad clearly hasn't read Catch 22 Lord Haart - 30/11/2010 04:38:12 AM 647 Views
I didn't have any problems either. *NM* Darth_Katie - 30/11/2010 04:40:24 AM 347 Views
Exactly my feeling on TGS, but I do think ToM inferior to it (though still good). Joel - 28/11/2010 02:55:53 PM 984 Views

Right, it's good, but could be better (or it could be better, but is still good). Joel - 28/11/2010 03:12:15 PM 703 Views

Radically different perspectives, it seems; I bet you don't even like leggy blondes. Joel - 29/11/2010 01:11:16 PM 714 Views
"Reading" TGS &ToM in audio format and just weeks apart made them work better together. *NM* Zalis - 29/11/2010 07:48:51 PM 416 Views
I agree. Also, chopping up the timelines was the best decision given the circumstances. Nate - 01/12/2010 02:02:07 PM 713 Views
