Oh I agree with you on that... fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 25/09/2012 11:07:10 PM
I was envisioning the two skipping down a park trail, a puppy in tow, more than I was reading anything substantive. Not that anyone would ever expect such from him when it comes to "reviewing" WoT ;)

Its not in any sense a review. It wasn't even meant to be, as far as I can tell. And its quality is hardly the point, anyway.


But the point still stands that I don't think much of his "reviewing" in general when it comes to this series, as he has to embrace fully the role of a promoter here. Some people did find his turd polishing (the praising of CoT for example) to be misleading (not I, since I didn't read that book for almost 3 years after publication :P). *shrug*


I still remember his glowing review of Towers of Midnight. What a bunch of crap that was...

But that's why I stayed away from those parts of his "review". I really don't think we can say anything about how good/bad aMoL will be based on this.

I was referring to his past posts and not just this particular one Larry - 25/09/2012 05:43:45 PM 1647 Views

Jason is a moron. His review of tGS had no resemblance to reality & he can't tell RJ from B-Sand *NM* Cannoli - 25/09/2012 11:40:48 AM 1043 Views
This is the same idiot who gushed over Towers of Midnight, isn't it? Tom - 25/09/2012 02:29:34 PM 1651 Views

who gushes over COT? exept to say 'i finished it damnit!' Yunalesca - 25/09/2012 11:16:04 PM 1634 Views
I actually like a few passages from CoT. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 26/09/2012 06:01:32 PM 867 Views
there are some good bits in it, yes Yunalesca - 26/09/2012 10:22:45 PM 1783 Views
Yeah, it's definitely not my favourite. *NM* Fanatic-Templar - 27/09/2012 03:36:16 AM 873 Views
I love this thread. Narg - 25/09/2012 03:20:24 PM 1644 Views
I think his site bans people who don't mince words. IIRC, they banned fionwe1987, of all people *NM* Cannoli - 25/09/2012 06:24:58 PM 877 Views
They banned me and Illtempest. fionwe1987 - 25/09/2012 11:09:23 PM 1640 Views
And we were actually being restrained with what we were saying... lilltempest - 25/09/2012 11:28:04 PM 1517 Views
True... fionwe1987 - 25/09/2012 11:44:57 PM 1548 Views
Well, I was only trying to mention the surprise ban. Cannoli - 25/09/2012 11:53:23 PM 1570 Views
