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 1743 Views
I'd be interested in this question as well, once you've finished. *NM* RandAllThor - 16/10/2010 02:28:39 AM 1535 Views

Well, thumbing ahead, I think I saw an oblique reference Larry - 16/10/2010 05:18:02 AM 1799 Views
Whoa, check out that COVER! Joel - 16/10/2010 07:58:31 AM 1590 Views
The cover image was released months ago. TaskmasterJack - 19/10/2010 10:04:16 PM 1489 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 932 Views
It's a surprising book in many ways Larry - 16/10/2010 03:25:13 PM 1750 Views
A few questions, assuming you've now finished RandAllThor - 16/10/2010 03:39:57 PM 1604 Views
I don't read in a lineal fashion, so I'm only 50% done Larry - 16/10/2010 03:58:34 PM 1707 Views
Damn. I bet we're in for a cliffhanger. *NM* RandAllThor - 16/10/2010 04:01:56 PM 1390 Views
Larry - 16/10/2010 04:03:48 PM 1574 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 1550 Views
Is this in reference to Brandon's 'small unnoticed detail' from books 4-6? Terez - 17/10/2010 10:35:37 PM 1717 Views
Something else Larry - 17/10/2010 10:42:17 PM 1630 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 787 Views
Just glancing at it that's what I thought had happened. *NM* j-whitt987 - 16/10/2010 11:24:08 PM 838 Views
Warning for everyone who tends to read the Glossary first Larry - 16/10/2010 03:16:09 PM 1872 Views
Certainly... Etzel - 16/10/2010 03:36:29 PM 1778 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 1593 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 1946 Views
Thanks, I'm happy with either the thematic or "stuff happening" model. *NM* RandAllThor - 16/10/2010 06:40:22 PM 1280 Views

You now sound as cryptic as Sanderson does and Jordan did. Tom - 18/10/2010 06:29:45 PM 1407 Views
Ha! I actually said a lot more than I meant to, ironically enough Larry - 18/10/2010 10:19:43 PM 1355 Views
Well, feel free to talk about the structure and prose, then. Tom - 18/10/2010 11:28:01 PM 1267 Views
I would, but there's another problem in doing that Larry - 18/10/2010 11:32:35 PM 1686 Views
