I don't see how WoT's writing (Before, or now) prevents that LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 02/12/2010 04:12:54 AM
It could just be my own thought processing and reading habits that makes it that way for me. But I have had no problem connecting to and understanding the characters. Most of the time I understand their actions and when I don't understand their actions, it's mostly because the action itself doesn't make sense in a given situation :P

Agreed. The series is formulaic and predictable, and even I expected a few more twists. Tom - 28/11/2010 07:47:10 PM 1083 Views
Good reading for adrenaline junkies, maybe. *NM* moratcorlm - 29/11/2010 12:32:53 AM 604 Views

I didn't say he was necessarily Compulsed guttering flame - 30/11/2010 07:40:51 AM 860 Views

It's a well told story with fun characters overall, but it's definitely not "War & Peace" RugbyPlayingAshaman - 29/11/2010 06:33:12 PM 1086 Views

War and Peace was very thematic moratcorlm - 30/11/2010 05:00:30 AM 1293 Views

I'm not really sure if or why any reader would need to suspend disbelief to enjoy WoT RugbyPlayingAshaman - 30/11/2010 10:31:49 PM 893 Views
I've always thought of this series (and fantasy in general) are a bit like Aesop's Fables LadyLorraine - 30/11/2010 10:44:09 PM 841 Views
Please tell me what drugs you're on Tom - 01/12/2010 04:04:39 AM 991 Views
It's called 'reality' - I agree with LadyLorraine & Moratcorlm RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/12/2010 07:57:35 PM 924 Views
You are absolutely wrong. Tom - 02/12/2010 04:53:52 AM 883 Views
You are incorrect - you should read the definition you reference before posting it. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 02/12/2010 04:19:16 PM 1034 Views
No, I read the ENTIRE article, unlike you. You have to scroll down a bit. Tom - 02/12/2010 05:47:13 PM 818 Views
No, you need to read and comprehend. That was a THEORY. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 02/12/2010 07:11:01 PM 732 Views
It's really very simple. Tom - 04/12/2010 12:31:16 AM 993 Views
mk, I think I understand more what you meant now after reading this exchange LadyLorraine - 05/12/2010 05:42:47 AM 914 Views
I still don't agree; sorry. I don't think this theory applies to everyone. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 06/12/2010 05:30:41 PM 1045 Views
No, those are disbeliefs that you must suspend. LadyLorraine - 01/12/2010 08:18:25 PM 813 Views
You have to feel the characters are somehow believable to empathize with them. Tom - 02/12/2010 01:05:29 AM 864 Views
I don't see how WoT's writing (Before, or now) prevents that LadyLorraine - 02/12/2010 04:12:54 AM 742 Views
I'm not arguing that it necessarily does for everyone, just that YOU HAVE TO SUSPEND DISBELIEF Tom - 02/12/2010 04:48:51 AM 952 Views
