Wheel of Time Mammas

[Phoenix~Mama]

Was curious if anyone has read the Wheel of Time series here by Robert Jordan.

I'm a pretty fan myself and have been involved in different communities based around it for the past 6 years.

Oh, ME! me, me, me!

I was crushed to hear of his death!

I have the prequel too, and the whole series in hardback, and the one big background book.

Do you think Cadsuane is Black Ajah?

[Ofwait]

Hehe, I have the whole thing, including the prequel.

Very sad to hear that he died. Though he left extensive notes and his wife has apparently picked another author to finish it.

[heidirk]

I'm holding out hope...but how do you copy a style like that?

I'm glad they picked someone.

Moving to the books forum

[sebarnes]

Big, big fan! I am glad someone is finishing it. I don't even particularly care if they copy the style. At this point I want darn closure! FTR, I don't think Cadsuane is Black Ajah.

I want to see Elayne's twins be born...And does Rand ever get his hand back?

[Phoenix~Mama]

Oh yeah! Other WoT fans!!

I don't think Cadsuane is Black. lol

The author to write the last book is Ben Sanderson.

It was really sad when James (RJ) died. I was in shock when I found out. I have met him several times.

There will be a Jordan Con in Atlanta Georgia in Spring 2009 and Wilson, RJ's cousin and Harriet, his wife will be there.

I run a small WoT community/role play site so know a lot of the goings on in the WoT world. hehe


I hope we get to see Elayne's twins born too. How awesome has Egwene turned in the last book?? I really hope Ben does a good job. I think there will be a lot of unanswered questions either way though, cause RJ said there would be.

Even at the end of the last book, I didn't think he could wrap it up in just one nore book. I was thinking maybe two, but there are so many subplots running, unless somehting pulls them all together in a hurry, I don't think one book will be enough.
I did sense that some major plot culmination was about to take palce though. Argh! I've waited in agony for each successive book ever since book three, and I can;t stand it.

Do you know anything about Ben Sanderson? what's he written?

[Phoenix~Mama]

Oops! Brandon is his first name. Here is a link to his website: http://www.brandonsanderson.com/

He has written some other fantasy type books.

Any news on this? I am rereading "Knife" and would love to jump right into the next one..

[holyhelianthus]

The first 3 were great but after that not so much. I do want to try and read them all again though. I think I got to book 9 before...

Well, if you decide to reread them keep a list of everyone that ends up being Black Ajah or a dark friend.. I lose track of that ALL the time..
