Robert Jordan put out a book, died, managed to get another book out and has a second one set for release on Election Day


Say what you like about Jordan and his writing, the man was dedicated to finishing the series.

Because George R.R. Martin does everything but write these days... Tom - 22/09/2010 04:15:04 AM 1841 Views
I don't hate him. But, like you, I'm fed up with him. LiterateDog - 22/09/2010 04:47:31 AM 875 Views
I'm pretty much in the same camp as you and Tom. everynametaken - 22/09/2010 06:17:53 AM 966 Views
I'm beginning to agree. Ghavrel - 22/09/2010 09:55:07 AM 854 Views
I do like Neil Gaiman's writing, though. *NM* Ghavrel - 22/09/2010 10:01:24 AM 375 Views
I can forgive you. *NM* Tom - 22/09/2010 02:08:46 PM 411 Views
Not only is he a writer, but he has really only one successful series. Tom - 23/09/2010 03:40:30 AM 791 Views
Far more people watched B&B than have read ASoIaF. Werthead - 23/09/2010 07:01:22 PM 950 Views
good point *NM* aragornital - 22/09/2010 08:07:16 AM 469 Views
Wait a minute... Larry - 22/09/2010 11:33:37 PM 916 Views
I said I'm "growing" to hate him. I'm not ready to pay for his death yet. Tom - 23/09/2010 03:37:53 AM 805 Views
bahahahahahahahahaha temeraire - 22/09/2010 06:10:26 AM 891 Views
I was in an odd mood last night Tom - 23/09/2010 03:36:46 AM 735 Views
Hahaha Darth_Katie - 22/09/2010 01:24:17 PM 871 Views
I'm not sure I'd be dictating chapters from my deathbed Tom - 23/09/2010 03:35:43 AM 754 Views
I was thinking the same things a couple days ago Fox and Ravens - 22/09/2010 02:22:49 PM 1006 Views
I'm not sure Brandon Sanderson could finish the series, either. Tom - 23/09/2010 03:33:52 AM 791 Views
Sadly, I would be satisfied with this. StormCrow - 23/09/2010 03:01:04 PM 888 Views
If I was an author I wouldn't defend him. Tigr - 22/09/2010 03:35:17 PM 867 Views
I agree but emphatically endorse use of the subjunctive "were". Tom - 23/09/2010 03:31:25 AM 747 Views
If I were to be grammatically correct, the world would stop spinning. *NM* Tigr - 23/09/2010 02:27:00 PM 403 Views
Martin is not the only one... ajah - 02/10/2010 08:16:51 AM 831 Views
If he had only ever written stand-alone books... Gher - 22/09/2010 03:42:48 PM 847 Views
There is more than an expectation. Tom - 23/09/2010 03:30:32 AM 847 Views
I stopped caring so long ago I don't even remember much of what it's about. *NM* Macharius - 22/09/2010 04:21:52 PM 366 Views
Wolves and incest and a big wall of ice with barrow-wights on the other side. *NM* Tom - 23/09/2010 03:36:19 AM 371 Views
You know whenever the new book is ever released, it'll sell even more copies due to the wait, right? Larry - 22/09/2010 11:06:37 PM 886 Views
Bisson was already working on it when Miller died, IIRC Werthead - 22/09/2010 11:17:50 PM 864 Views
Close enough Larry - 22/09/2010 11:26:51 PM 910 Views
There's a huge difference between Song of Ice and Fire and Miller's Leibowitz. Tom - 23/09/2010 03:28:31 AM 791 Views
I know - I was just thinking about wait times for stories Larry - 23/09/2010 03:40:09 AM 736 Views
Not neccessarily. There are plenty of series that I started but didn't finish because I lost Tashmere - 24/09/2010 12:58:10 AM 742 Views
Don't mistake yourself for the average consumer Larry - 24/09/2010 04:03:57 AM 981 Views
Re: Don't mistake yourself for the average consumer Werthead - 24/09/2010 08:55:29 AM 895 Views
which is why I always rant - why review a book on your blog, but not Amazon? Aeryn - 25/09/2010 03:36:45 PM 808 Views
That's why I always do. Werthead - 25/09/2010 04:51:49 PM 733 Views
Re: Mostly, because I don't buy from Amazon. *NM* Danae al'Thor - 26/09/2010 12:09:03 AM 390 Views
I don't plan to read it. nossy - 26/09/2010 03:28:02 PM 987 Views
As I said in a previous response... Larry - 26/09/2010 11:15:13 PM 770 Views

Where's your evidence that Neil Gaiman thinks he's God? Tim - 23/09/2010 01:31:03 PM 822 Views
Re: Nothing wrong with him if does have a high opinion of himself. *NM* Danae al'Thor - 26/09/2010 12:11:06 AM 337 Views
I'm always amused by these threads. Variant - 24/09/2010 08:22:54 AM 811 Views
Re: I'm always amused by these threads. Fox and Ravens - 24/09/2010 02:42:27 PM 904 Views
Truly, there's really no reason that you can't be both angry at him and planning to buy the book. Kotagg - 25/09/2010 12:46:03 AM 784 Views
I never said it was hypocritical, just saying it's amusing. *NM* Variant - 25/09/2010 11:06:42 AM 377 Views
So y'all just bitching? Variant - 25/09/2010 10:31:23 AM 826 Views
