Without going into specifics, how did you like the ending? Does it compare favorably with that of TGS?

Do Rand and Egwene have major roles in the book?

Does ToM deliver the same number of iconic/memorable/major scenes as TGS did?


But having read several of the major plotlines, the ending is different. That's all I'll say on that.

Memorable scenes? About the same, maybe more, depending on which characters you enjoy the most.

Yes, they have major roles but not major numbers of chapters.

I'm only 160 pages into it and won't finish it tonight...I think Larry - 16/10/2010 02:17:53 AM 1742 Views
I'd be interested in this question as well, once you've finished. *NM* RandAllThor - 16/10/2010 02:28:39 AM 1534 Views

Well, thumbing ahead, I think I saw an oblique reference Larry - 16/10/2010 05:18:02 AM 1798 Views
Whoa, check out that COVER! Joel - 16/10/2010 07:58:31 AM 1589 Views
The cover image was released months ago. TaskmasterJack - 19/10/2010 10:04:16 PM 1488 Views
Has it lived up to your initial excitement on looking at the ending thus far? *NM* RandAllThor - 16/10/2010 11:11:44 AM 931 Views
It's a surprising book in many ways Larry - 16/10/2010 03:25:13 PM 1749 Views
A few questions, assuming you've now finished RandAllThor - 16/10/2010 03:39:57 PM 1603 Views
I don't read in a lineal fashion, so I'm only 50% done Larry - 16/10/2010 03:58:34 PM 1705 Views
Damn. I bet we're in for a cliffhanger. *NM* RandAllThor - 16/10/2010 04:01:56 PM 1388 Views
Larry - 16/10/2010 04:03:48 PM 1573 Views
I think you'd have denied it if it weren't true. I call unspoken confirmation. *NM* RandAllThor - 16/10/2010 04:13:47 PM 1548 Views
Is this in reference to Brandon's 'small unnoticed detail' from books 4-6? Terez - 17/10/2010 10:35:37 PM 1716 Views
Something else Larry - 17/10/2010 10:42:17 PM 1629 Views

Ironically Sanderson's signature looks like he tried to cross out his own name from the title page *NM* Cannoli - 16/10/2010 12:22:33 PM 907 Views
He's done that on all the books I've had signed. *NM* kavorka - 16/10/2010 02:41:04 PM 786 Views
Just glancing at it that's what I thought had happened. *NM* j-whitt987 - 16/10/2010 11:24:08 PM 837 Views
Warning for everyone who tends to read the Glossary first Larry - 16/10/2010 03:16:09 PM 1871 Views
Certainly... Etzel - 16/10/2010 03:36:29 PM 1776 Views
Or it might be that the glossary reveals that the murderer him/herself gets done over in ToM. RandAllThor - 16/10/2010 03:41:21 PM 1592 Views

And one last general question from me RandAllThor - 16/10/2010 05:51:51 PM 1410 Views
Thematically, TGS Larry - 16/10/2010 06:00:47 PM 1945 Views
Thanks, I'm happy with either the thematic or "stuff happening" model. *NM* RandAllThor - 16/10/2010 06:40:22 PM 1279 Views

You now sound as cryptic as Sanderson does and Jordan did. Tom - 18/10/2010 06:29:45 PM 1406 Views
Ha! I actually said a lot more than I meant to, ironically enough Larry - 18/10/2010 10:19:43 PM 1354 Views
Well, feel free to talk about the structure and prose, then. Tom - 18/10/2010 11:28:01 PM 1266 Views
I would, but there's another problem in doing that Larry - 18/10/2010 11:32:35 PM 1685 Views
