It's a matter of practicality BlackAdder Send a noteboard - 19/09/2009 10:08:09 PM
No, I won't download chapter 1 nor will 1 buy the prologue.

First because I don't like the principle of splitting parts of a book to be given or worse, sold separately.

Second because it'd be way too cruel to have such a small appetizer and then having to wait another month for the "plat de résistance" :p

Am I a poor lonesome old-fashioned reader? :P


If I didn't get the prologue and Chapter 1, I'd have to endure the spoilers/not being able to discuss WoT for more than a month. Not worth it so I paid the $3.50 for the audiobook - it's a good deal IMO.
