What is it you want? Dark Knight Send a noteboard - 29/09/2012 09:39:36 PM
Zombie RJ is not an option (not that I know of). Other than that, you will obviously get an inferior product, as only RJ knew what was in his head. The series ended with knife of dreams, as RJ chose to inflate his series to make more money. They could have hired anybody, it still wouldn't have been what RJ would have written.

If you have to call someone "my friend" three times in a couple of minutes, he isn't. Cannoli - 28/09/2012 11:59:13 AM 5966 Views
John McCain has a similar proclivity. *NM* RandAllThor - 28/09/2012 12:26:29 PM 1231 Views
The only people I've ever heard say "my friend" are foreign street vendors Marshall - 28/09/2012 01:19:00 PM 1292 Views
Potential customer = best kind of friend *NM* Artsapat - 28/09/2012 02:20:29 PM 780 Views
I agree in this particular instance. Nate - 28/09/2012 03:38:15 PM 1628 Views
Maybe they have been Quakers all along? *NM* dadof5 - 28/09/2012 03:39:24 PM 878 Views
Sanderson's handling of character interractions is pathetic.... DomA - 28/09/2012 06:43:48 PM 1535 Views
Now see, here I don't fully agree, or at least think it's a matter of taste. Nate - 28/09/2012 07:21:09 PM 2199 Views
Sorry, that's just not true... fionwe1987 - 28/09/2012 11:33:59 PM 1333 Views
A few things. Nate - 29/09/2012 02:40:47 AM 1645 Views
Great rebuttal! Fionwe got burned! *NM* Dark Knight - 29/09/2012 04:00:41 PM 944 Views

Yes! fionwe1987 - 29/09/2012 02:26:39 AM 1505 Views
This is one of my biggest pet peeves as well Deadsy - 29/09/2012 04:56:53 AM 1526 Views
There are people who say that? Nate - 29/09/2012 05:16:58 AM 1361 Views
I complained about this regarding the Forsaken chapter Sidious - 28/09/2012 07:34:25 PM 1601 Views
I've long since accepted that Sanderson uses inaccurate terms like "powerful" darius_sedai - 29/09/2012 05:44:11 AM 1602 Views
To be fair, the last Moghedian PoV by RJ might have changed her a bit. Cannoli - 29/09/2012 03:27:31 PM 1305 Views
Which is the question I brought up in another thread darius_sedai - 29/09/2012 05:29:01 PM 1201 Views
Yes. The last time it happened to me it ended with the taxi driver fined by the NYPD. Tom - 29/09/2012 07:05:26 AM 1284 Views
The burning question to me, after reading all of the comments above, is this... Shannow - 29/09/2012 08:50:50 AM 1516 Views
Piggybacking on someone else's established characters and near-climax-point plot? Cannoli - 29/09/2012 03:04:03 PM 1575 Views
Both of you disgust me Dark Knight - 29/09/2012 04:13:16 PM 1475 Views
This is not jealousy, it's being upset Marshall - 29/09/2012 07:52:51 PM 1371 Views
They could have hired a ghost writer. They chose not to. *NM* Dark Knight - 29/09/2012 09:34:27 PM 9915 Views
Your crappy taste in books means nothing Cannoli - 30/09/2012 09:23:51 PM 1880 Views
When did I ever say Eli Manning wasn't a good QB? Dark Knight - 01/10/2012 03:40:21 PM 1267 Views
To be fair... Sidious - 29/09/2012 04:36:52 PM 1344 Views
True ... He may not be perfect, and he certainly made some strange choices darius_sedai - 29/09/2012 05:37:29 PM 1265 Views
B-Sand is not a ghost writer Dark Knight - 29/09/2012 06:35:16 PM 2632 Views
Didn't say he should. darius_sedai - 29/09/2012 09:07:45 PM 1953 Views
I mostly agree with this. Nate - 29/09/2012 09:36:38 PM 1589 Views
What is it you want? Dark Knight - 29/09/2012 09:39:36 PM 1505 Views
We want to bitch about an inferior product. Duh. Cannoli - 29/09/2012 10:00:09 PM 3497 Views
Hmm that's true I guess. Sad though *NM* Dark Knight - 29/09/2012 10:07:25 PM 633 Views
It is what it is darius_sedai - 30/09/2012 12:52:20 AM 1109 Views
Those are not remotely the same thing Cannoli - 30/09/2012 09:14:49 PM 1394 Views
But they are the same in this instance darius_sedai - 30/09/2012 10:01:59 PM 1332 Views
You do know this isn't his series, right? Dark Knight - 29/09/2012 04:19:00 PM 1800 Views
Do you see us going to Mistborn boards to rip his series? Part of the problem is what you say. Cannoli - 29/09/2012 09:57:54 PM 2195 Views
Apologies for not being clear: I'm only referring to WoT. Haven't read any of his other work... Shannow - 30/09/2012 06:56:08 PM 1606 Views
I'd agree that I like his original works more than his WoT books beetnemesis - 01/10/2012 06:17:33 PM 1402 Views
It's fairly simple.... DomA - 30/09/2012 09:55:52 PM 1546 Views
Thanks for that insightful response... Shannow - 30/09/2012 10:37:27 PM 1228 Views
Try reading something instead of judging. I recommend the Mistborn trilogy *NM* Dark Knight - 01/10/2012 01:14:24 AM 598 Views
Forgotten Realms is big on clever spells and magic systems? Fanatic-Templar - 01/10/2012 05:27:05 AM 1204 Views
It's more... DomA - 01/10/2012 01:05:18 PM 1961 Views
Did you read Way of Kings? VTHokie - 03/10/2012 09:14:43 PM 1456 Views
No, nothing but the prologue DomA - 04/10/2012 02:56:14 AM 1230 Views
Re: The burning question to me, after reading all of the comments above, is this... RugbyPlayingAshaman - 11/10/2012 08:22:27 PM 1119 Views
I have an acquaintance who uses "my friend" as punctuation of every sentence. Kaldric - 05/10/2012 02:47:40 PM 1816 Views
