I would assume that we could discuss and dissect both using only (or almost only) the prologue and Chapter One and Chapter "The Seven-Striped Lass" (which sounds like another allusion to Jordan's S&M fantasies if you ask me), all of which are generally available to the public at present.
I'd enjoy a discussion like that.
I'd enjoy a discussion like that.
I do have a review to write that I'd hope people would want to read

But once the release date arrives, I'll have something substantive to say about it.
