Do you honestly think Jordan would have kept that "promise" if he were still alive? Seriously ... Bookwyrm Send a noteboard - 27/11/2010 09:01:49 AM
after the events of Knife of Dreams, how on Middle-Earth could Jordan wrap up EVERY character's plotline, clean up ALL the loose ends and answer MANY questions in ONE book. With his "flowery" writing to boot!!!! Sure, he's not as bad as GRRM but the dude tended to write on and on and on and so on ...

The White Tower's reunification, Seanchan conflicts, the Borderland attacks, Rand's restoration, and the then still alive Forsaken to take care of. And then there is Perrin and Mat, and MOIRAINE's RESCUE!!! Are you seriously telling me Jordan would have resolved all this in 1 mega-novel?
BOHICA - Go ahead, ask me what it means.

What was the purpose of Graendal?! - 25/11/2010 03:54:29 PM 1568 Views
BS wanted to put her behind a "complicated" plot - 25/11/2010 04:11:01 PM 834 Views
Yes, it's BSand's fault. RJ couldn't have EVER planned it all out himself right? Yes mm hmm - 25/11/2010 04:19:02 PM 772 Views

oh but, bookwyrm, now they have such a nice easy scapegoat!! *NM* - 26/11/2010 01:35:53 AM 328 Views
And DomA is such infallible authority on the all things WoT why? *NM* - 25/11/2010 06:00:42 PM 360 Views
I'd say that DomA is one of the most thoughtful posters here. He researches his comments and gives - 25/11/2010 06:47:58 PM 751 Views
You got me wrong - 25/11/2010 07:11:43 PM 866 Views
That doesn't mean he has any actual evidence as to BS tampering with RJ's notes - 26/11/2010 01:33:08 AM 659 Views

clearly the timeline is wonky, but it's easy enough to keep track of - 04/12/2010 05:32:34 PM 758 Views
A minor aside - 26/11/2010 02:49:03 PM 574 Views
oops minor omission, i meant the last 3 books were meant to be one big tome *NM* - 26/11/2010 04:40:53 PM 307 Views
Meh, even that is pretty ridiculous - 26/11/2010 06:32:20 PM 543 Views

RJ was set on it being one book hoping he could finish it before he died *NM* - 25/11/2010 05:45:07 PM 699 Views

that's a pretty poor argument for showing BS as messing everything up - 26/11/2010 01:29:16 AM 640 Views

If it hadn't been Graendal, it WOULD have been rather contrived... - 26/11/2010 01:35:12 AM 555 Views
Well, we were under the impression that Moridin alone had access to the True Power. - 26/11/2010 02:36:31 AM 772 Views
I was under the impression other Forsaken had access as well, something pointed out by their POVs .. - 27/11/2010 09:09:17 AM 575 Views
No, only Moridin - 27/11/2010 06:43:17 PM 553 Views
