So when the book/series ends, what will it have all meant?

I ask this because when I do an occasional peek-in at this board, most of what I see seems to be arguments regarding fantasy physics than anything approaching a discussion of what the series as a whole would "mean" in regards to thematic issues.
What's to be taken from this series? That an author spent years before his death introducing minutiae for obsessive fans to debate, or is there something else to it?
It'd be interesting to see discussion of potential themes and their possible resolutions here rather than the fantasy physics version of dick size and how one uses it in...umm...opening gateways

Well, it is a bit more complex than a D&D novel

I've noticed that quite a few here/wotmania have not been big fiction (fantasy) readers

It is a tale, told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

It also has Faulknerian allusions

No, but I'll keep it in mind for the future when I have more money to spare

It sold out fast. They might reprint it, though.

Hopefully, that or it won't be more than $200 when I do have the money to spare
