I'd say there's been some unusualness. malekithe Send a noteboard - 05/12/2010 09:52:22 AM
Rand is not showing anything unusual for his character. I have not seen him develop any powers he did not have since book 1, only develop the strength of them which makes total sense.


Oh, he had Light Powers in book 1? I must have misread that book since according to you I have a reading disability. Yes, let me go re read book 1, I do recall Rand using Light Powers a lot, oh yes.

Yeah, apples always grew from nowhere when Rand was running around in book 1.



And the thing is, berk, you're not only upset with one or two characters, or a few plot lines. You seem genuinely upset at a great deal of major elements within the books. That's usually grounds for discontinuing reading a book series.



Just because watching a car crash may not be enjoyable to see doesn't mean you can take your eyes away from it. The series went downhill several books ago, yet I've already invested too much to not be curious to see it end - already. AND there are many characters I like reading, and some I like reading sometimes, other times not.

why would you read the series and visit fan sites if you hate it all that much? *NM* Nargs - 04/12/2010 06:38:47 AM 451 Views

If you didn't get Rand's transformation, you're not the intended audience... Lord Haart - 04/12/2010 06:58:20 AM 1064 Views
OFF TOPIC: Lord Haart, are you a HOMM fan? *NM* Nargs - 04/12/2010 07:06:41 AM 585 Views
Yep! Ever since (the original) King's Bounty. *NM* Lord Haart - 05/12/2010 01:38:20 PM 417 Views
Oh, love of course. malekithe - 04/12/2010 07:13:10 AM 927 Views
Yeah, while you're busy not believing that, you should believe in things like the One Power too. Lord Haart - 04/12/2010 10:28:46 AM 875 Views

You've completely missed the point darius_sedai - 04/12/2010 02:03:06 PM 824 Views
You've completely missed the point! malekithe - 05/12/2010 08:54:47 AM 786 Views
what do you mean? these powers have been manifesting for a while! You need to read more closely darius_sedai - 05/12/2010 03:15:21 PM 871 Views
You're right, why would love ever be the Base of Goodness??? LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 08:59:27 AM 799 Views
You're proving my point actually malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:33:23 AM 710 Views
? at what point was this series not supposed to be stereotypical? LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 09:36:06 AM 844 Views
Well... malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:42:04 AM 937 Views

Not in Rand malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:55:02 AM 736 Views
channeling isn't far from stereotypical LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 10:10:20 AM 996 Views
So why do you keep reading? malekithe - 05/12/2010 10:17:49 AM 956 Views
far from it. LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 10:30:02 AM 752 Views

Again, why are you on this board or even reading this series? Ashaman_Luc - 04/12/2010 02:30:22 PM 923 Views
Uh excuse me. malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:05:27 AM 836 Views
since you are so very unhappy, I fail to see why you continue to read the books LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 09:09:36 AM 685 Views
Don't twist things to suit yourself malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:38:42 AM 783 Views
I would be unhappy with that ending because the Creator has never worked directly. LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 09:44:17 AM 812 Views
I'd say there's been some unusualness. malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:52:22 AM 771 Views
If Rand was one of the supporting heroes, maybe. But he's the "messiah" character LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 10:15:42 AM 758 Views
Actually, it's got zilch to do with "good" or "evil". Lord Haart - 05/12/2010 01:37:49 PM 860 Views
actually, we don't know how it is done and I like my theory just fine, thank you LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 05:48:19 PM 682 Views
We haven't had a Rand POV, so I don't think you can say for certain that it's random. Lord Haart - 06/12/2010 03:16:43 AM 863 Views
I don't think I can either. I'm not trying to say it's certain. LadyLorraine - 06/12/2010 06:17:04 AM 756 Views
I really like Rand post-epiphany (or BuddhaRand as I call him) RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/12/2010 04:05:10 PM 669 Views
