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 455 Views

If you didn't get Rand's transformation, you're not the intended audience... Lord Haart - 04/12/2010 06:58:20 AM 1075 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 886 Views

You've completely missed the point darius_sedai - 04/12/2010 02:03:06 PM 834 Views
You've completely missed the point! malekithe - 05/12/2010 08:54:47 AM 795 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 885 Views
You're right, why would love ever be the Base of Goodness??? LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 08:59:27 AM 812 Views
You're proving my point actually malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:33:23 AM 722 Views
? at what point was this series not supposed to be stereotypical? LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 09:36:06 AM 856 Views
Well... malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:42:04 AM 948 Views

Not in Rand malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:55:02 AM 746 Views
channeling isn't far from stereotypical LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 10:10:20 AM 1004 Views
So why do you keep reading? malekithe - 05/12/2010 10:17:49 AM 968 Views
far from it. LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 10:30:02 AM 762 Views

Again, why are you on this board or even reading this series? Ashaman_Luc - 04/12/2010 02:30:22 PM 934 Views
Uh excuse me. malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:05:27 AM 843 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 694 Views
Don't twist things to suit yourself malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:38:42 AM 794 Views
I would be unhappy with that ending because the Creator has never worked directly. LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 09:44:17 AM 827 Views
I'd say there's been some unusualness. malekithe - 05/12/2010 09:52:22 AM 781 Views
If Rand was one of the supporting heroes, maybe. But he's the "messiah" character LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 10:15:42 AM 769 Views
Actually, it's got zilch to do with "good" or "evil". Lord Haart - 05/12/2010 01:37:49 PM 872 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 691 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 874 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 769 Views
I really like Rand post-epiphany (or BuddhaRand as I call him) RugbyPlayingAshaman - 07/12/2010 04:05:10 PM 679 Views
