Pretty much. RugbyPlayingAshaman Send a noteboard - 15/08/2011 04:49:40 PM
I consider "The Wheel of Time" to be on the same level as "Final Fantasy". A lot of fan service, the good guys get to look very good while beating the bad guys, and the bad guys are evil. Once I stopped expecting the story to be meaningful or interesting, I was able to content myself with it being merely entertaining.

A Dance of Dragons will influence A Memory of Light? beelaa - 28/07/2011 03:30:30 PM 2509 Views
It's impossible for nothing to happen in AMoL. Marshall - 28/07/2011 07:30:02 PM 1476 Views
Oh, you're so cute in your innocence! Cannoli - 02/08/2011 06:14:37 AM 1208 Views
Good thing I wasn't drinking milk when I read this. RabidWombat - 07/08/2011 10:24:29 PM 1058 Views
Yeah, suck it WoT-haters! We're eclectic! *NM* Cannoli - 11/08/2011 02:00:05 AM 640 Views
Regardless of how bad it is, stuff still WILL happen. *NM* Marshall - 10/08/2011 05:30:02 PM 452 Views

Actually, there is growing discontent, even among those who've defended Martin. Libby - 07/08/2011 11:05:33 PM 1310 Views
Those who says that nothing happens in ADWD really need to read CoT Zeratul - 29/07/2011 12:02:23 PM 1244 Views
Watching grass grow is better than reading CoT, so it's not saying much for ADWD *NM* Praziquantel - 30/07/2011 02:10:12 AM 448 Views

A Dance of Dragons is hardly filler. *shrugs* *NM* everynametaken - 31/07/2011 04:43:58 PM 732 Views
Agreed. It could be argued that more happens in the epilogue of ADWD than all of CoT. *NM* RandAllThor - 01/08/2011 01:27:58 AM 464 Views

That's like a pissing match between Gigli and Ishtar. Tom - 02/08/2011 04:43:18 AM 970 Views
I regret wasting much of July reading it, so I respectfully disagree. Tom - 02/08/2011 04:41:39 AM 1064 Views
I do request that you don't lump ALL of fantasy into those two authors LadyLorraine - 02/08/2011 06:08:21 AM 1109 Views
You are completely overlooking his point, however. Cannoli - 02/08/2011 06:12:45 AM 1124 Views
F*** you, you idiot. *NM* Tom - 02/08/2011 06:13:48 AM 462 Views
At least he didn't ramble for five thousand words before actually making a point. *NM* everynametaken - 03/08/2011 11:04:06 PM 584 Views
Are you talking about Cannoli or Joel? : Larry - 03/08/2011 11:15:36 PM 1108 Views

There is that. Tom - 04/08/2011 04:51:39 PM 955 Views
And a direct reply: Tom - 02/08/2011 06:25:28 AM 1116 Views
that's fair enough LadyLorraine - 03/08/2011 12:22:34 AM 1042 Views
Pretty much. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 15/08/2011 04:49:40 PM 877 Views
Wait... You want intelligent meaningful books, but you're demanding action? A Deathwatch Guard - 02/08/2011 06:52:00 AM 1055 Views
I want one or the other. Tom - 02/08/2011 05:07:41 PM 922 Views
I don't mind a little of both Praziquantel - 02/08/2011 10:02:23 PM 861 Views
I think the issue is conflating fantasy with the multi-volume epics than anything I'd disagree with Larry - 03/08/2011 04:05:12 AM 1320 Views
That's debatable. *NM* Libby - 07/08/2011 11:07:51 PM 520 Views

I've wanted to say this for so long Japhy - 05/08/2011 02:21:10 AM 1059 Views
This "fluff" as you call it is important. Japhy - 05/08/2011 02:54:32 AM 1173 Views
Okay I'm not reading any of the replies in this thread until I finish ADwD, but I just wanted to say Sareitha Sedai - 10/08/2011 01:49:11 PM 1267 Views
