That was just a joke about her giving up the series. I didn't even recall which one was book 6 Cannoli Send a noteboard - 02/08/2011 02:28:06 PM
The "copying Jordan" thing obviously holds no water- the first couple of books have a ton of similar details (chosen one, magic based on gender, special sword, etc) but one could also say they're just fantasy cliches that each author tried to put his spin on.

I am curious as to why you think Book 6 was so amazing- that was Soul of the Fire, with the chimes, "chicken that is not a chicken," and the racist country, right? And also Kahlan has a convenient miscarriage at the end? (Well, not racism, wasn't it's a hair color thing? Anyway)



Kind of like "What time did you leave the wedding reception? Oh, that was ten minutes before the wet-tee shirt contest."

I haven't heard of Paolini being such a douche... Beqi - 02/08/2011 07:42:08 AM 1328 Views
So? What harm is he doing? Cannoli - 02/08/2011 06:58:56 AM 1757 Views
book 6? Was that the second or third time Ricky got kidnapped/changed his captors way of thinking? Beqi - 02/08/2011 07:08:45 AM 1412 Views
But then you have to retract the rip-off assertion Cannoli - 02/08/2011 01:58:28 PM 1382 Views
Er. You didn't answer her question: Why was Book 6 so groundbreaking? beetnemesis - 02/08/2011 02:07:18 PM 1354 Views

It's funny, though, because you hit the nail on the head with your random choice of number. Legolas - 02/08/2011 08:11:58 PM 1399 Views
I agree with all that LadyLorraine - 03/08/2011 12:15:15 AM 1394 Views
Isn't that the one where Richard carves a statue that is so rad it inspires a rebellion? Werthead - 03/08/2011 12:02:10 PM 1394 Views
well to be fair, it's more complicated than that LadyLorraine - 03/08/2011 05:27:59 PM 1281 Views
No, it's not. That is exactly what happens. *NM* MightyYT - 04/08/2011 08:42:23 PM 673 Views

As well as being the most overtly anti-communist & anti-religious of the series. Cannoli - 06/08/2011 02:52:52 AM 1422 Views
but if Hitler painted really well... LadyLorraine - 06/08/2011 03:44:52 AM 1234 Views

No, definitely not. beetnemesis - 02/08/2011 07:19:25 PM 1296 Views
I read all the way through the end, and I thought the last couple books redeemed it in my eyes LadyLorraine - 03/08/2011 12:11:56 AM 1274 Views
The revelation that Terry-um, I mean Richard, is God was retarded? For reals? *NM* Cannoli - 03/08/2011 02:14:00 AM 629 Views
*shrug* I just didn't like the ending LadyLorraine - 03/08/2011 04:01:40 AM 1416 Views
