Just finished ToM. Why do I have to wait for a damn year for the final book? ;_;

Wheel of Time general, if it pleases the Light

I liked the read, but found at least seven typographical errors, and Rand was spouting pre-processed wisdom the whole time. He lacked any sense of spontaneity. Simply having the god-character experience a massive epiphany is no excuse for always knowing exactly what to say.

Anyone got this yet? Because I have and I'm mad.

Brian Sanderson really sucks. Someone needs to tell him that American idiom mixed with ye olde english in a fantasy novel really grates and murders disbelief.

Also, the book is utterly atonal and bland. Characters are adolescent and have unconvincing voices.

Too many fucking Perrin chapters. This whinging cunt and his ridiculously overblown wife. He's been doing the same shit over and over again for the last 4 books. Lose wife, find wife, worry about wife not loving me, worry about wolves. Kill this cunt.

Chapters around the forsaken are the only decent bits. I started reading this series like 20 years ago and I'll see it through; but Sanderson needs amyloidosis.

Also...

mfw Moiraine killed Asmodean.

Your welcome.

Couldn't see a thread in the first 6 pages....

Anyone excited? Mine hasn't come yet.
