Pretty much. But I think significant blame should be laid at Jordan's feet for his abysmal pacing. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 02/02/2013 10:48:06 AM
I don't doubt that Jordan would have done a significantly better job than Sanderson, but by the time aMoL was approaching, there were just too many plotlines to conclude them sufficiently (doubtlessly some of the readers here who praise Jordan as the next coming of Shakespeare will disagree, but I digress). Given the absurd amount of time wasted with, for example, Rolan and Faile, I think it would have been hard for Jordan to do the remaining story of the Black Tower. Logain's absence in the latter part of the series is inane.

It felt like a plot tacked on as a vanity by Sanderson - 31/01/2013 02:49:09 PM 1184 Views

I kind of always thought RJ intended the minor characters to be bland - 03/02/2013 12:00:33 AM 1026 Views

I hated it because it reeked of sanderson pandering to "internet humour" for lack of a better term. - 31/01/2013 04:47:54 PM 1116 Views
Yep. I know what you mean, though it's hard to exactly quantify. - 31/01/2013 04:49:12 PM 1068 Views
