Re: The Forsaken don't get own entries darius_sedai Send a noteboard - 17/10/2010 12:52:38 AM

But the important number is three.


Three doesn't fit Slayer at all, of course (and why should it? He obviously didn't do the deed, :P). Nor does it really fit Graendal. It may fit Demandred because he was a part of the alliance of three Foresaken. Mesaana as well I suppose.

But maybe you mean three in a totally different context.


They have one general Forsaken entry.

It points to Slayer (especially since he seems to have an important role in the plot of ToM), or maybe Taim.


Why would they need separate entries to reveal that Graendal did it?

And why do you think Slayer will have a big role in ToM? He's not even been seen since WH! I'm not sure he's even been mentioned since WH... Just like he vanished from the books pertinent to Asmodean's death.

I suppose having his very own Glossary entry makes him the killer ... Just like Graendal wouldn't have a POV in ToM.

Whoa, check out that COVER! Joel - 16/10/2010 07:58:31 AM 1218 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 736 Views
It's a surprising book in many ways Larry - 16/10/2010 03:25:13 PM 1416 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 1199 Views
Is this in reference to Brandon's 'small unnoticed detail' from books 4-6? Terez - 17/10/2010 10:35:37 PM 1326 Views
Something else Larry - 17/10/2010 10:42:17 PM 1288 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 734 Views
He's done that on all the books I've had signed. *NM* kavorka - 16/10/2010 02:41:04 PM 620 Views
Just glancing at it that's what I thought had happened. *NM* j-whitt987 - 16/10/2010 11:24:08 PM 652 Views
Warning for everyone who tends to read the Glossary first Larry - 16/10/2010 03:16:09 PM 1545 Views
Certainly... Etzel - 16/10/2010 03:36:29 PM 1354 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 1220 Views

Well, feel free to talk about the structure and prose, then. Tom - 18/10/2010 11:28:01 PM 915 Views
I would, but there's another problem in doing that Larry - 18/10/2010 11:32:35 PM 1368 Views
