How long is it? I kinda wanna read it now, but I'm at work, so I'm not sure if I have time. *NM* Brian Send a noteboard - 05/09/2009 03:55:02 AM
It just feels wrong. Sorry. Maybe he gets better as the book goes on, but this is not the same. It's not bad, and it does not detract from the story, but it does not feel the same. I don't think it's going to matter. I still enjoyed reading the chapter, and I have every intention of reading the book the day it comes out, with not one less ounce of anticipation. But it is not RJ's writing, for those of you to whom such things matter.

Bah, so am I. 4.5 pages on Microsoft Word. Single space, no margin, Arial font, size 9. Cannoli - 05/09/2009 04:02:13 AM 853 Views
Yeah, it was actually a fairly quick read..no trouble at all reading it at work. *NM* Brian - 05/09/2009 05:00:17 AM 455 Views
It isn't supposed to be. Great Lord of Chaos - 05/09/2009 04:08:46 AM 963 Views
Jason claimed it was hard to tell them apart. *NM* Cannoli - 05/09/2009 04:10:13 AM 409 Views
I take anything from that source with a pinch of salt *NM* Sidious - 05/09/2009 03:41:49 PM 382 Views
I noticed that too. Kronin al'Sulc - 05/09/2009 04:11:22 AM 807 Views

Re: Absolutely not. bdev_03 - 05/09/2009 04:25:16 AM 1057 Views
That's what I meant by absolutely not. Cannoli - 05/09/2009 04:31:26 AM 1070 Views
Could it be rough draft that Sanderson kept, and Jordan never polished? *NM* Ryan - 05/09/2009 05:14:59 AM 475 Views
I doubt it Brian - 05/09/2009 05:17:09 AM 1128 Views
Definitely Sanderson AliasRY - 05/09/2009 05:27:57 AM 1083 Views
Really? DomA - 05/09/2009 08:55:37 AM 1111 Views

I could tell it wasn't Jordan, but I liked what I read. Rurouni_Kenshin - 05/09/2009 04:27:44 AM 797 Views
I liked it too...new WoT material finally! *NM* Ryan - 05/09/2009 05:16:34 AM 356 Views
It bugged me at first. Gher - 05/09/2009 04:32:27 AM 880 Views
Yeah, I just finished reading it....and it was pretty obvious that it wasn't RJ Brian - 05/09/2009 04:55:30 AM 877 Views
I think Sanderson had to come up with the wind scene Ryan - 05/09/2009 05:17:58 AM 891 Views

agreed. I liked it, but Deadsy - 05/09/2009 05:13:18 AM 947 Views
Anyone want to guess which part can be a foreshadowing? redhand - 05/09/2009 05:34:07 AM 905 Views
No surprise. Brandon was one of us when RJ stll lived *NM* Voscaia Sedai - 08/09/2009 04:27:14 PM 378 Views

Becareful of what you wish for Knightscape - 05/09/2009 08:29:52 AM 900 Views
I've been saying that for years. Cannoli - 05/09/2009 08:55:19 AM 957 Views
Whatever. I thought it was an improvement. Haggard - 05/09/2009 08:45:37 PM 891 Views
Agree fully. Art and paiting have rarely even been mentioned! It feels like a fan's writing... fionwe1987 - 05/09/2009 09:59:15 AM 1004 Views
Are you pre-ordering the book? AliasRY - 05/09/2009 10:48:44 AM 869 Views
I live in the U.S. now... fionwe1987 - 05/09/2009 02:59:40 PM 859 Views
I hope so, because I won't able to wait for it. *NM* AliasRY - 05/09/2009 04:45:01 PM 378 Views
I preordered it from Bookdepository.com for 15$ AgentOrange - 05/09/2009 04:47:07 PM 756 Views
I checked, they don't ship to India. *NM* AliasRY - 05/09/2009 04:50:34 PM 393 Views
Yes, I agree. It feels cold because it is an alien presence. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 09/09/2009 02:31:45 PM 762 Views
It sounds better via the audio Isaac - 05/09/2009 03:07:37 PM 907 Views
Re: It sounds better via the audio RandAllThor - 05/09/2009 03:41:27 PM 820 Views
No. It was never meant to be, it never could be and Sanderson never pretended otherwise. Werthead - 05/09/2009 07:40:37 PM 1014 Views
Exactly. Haggard - 05/09/2009 08:50:08 PM 845 Views
According to him... Werthead - 05/09/2009 09:14:44 PM 827 Views
It sounds more like Anderson than Jordan Cannoli - 05/09/2009 11:11:58 PM 1087 Views

Funniest thing ever posted on RAFO.com. Ever. *NM* Cannoli - 07/09/2009 03:49:24 AM 513 Views
In it's week long history. Ever. EVER *NM* Sidious - 07/09/2009 08:12:44 AM 313 Views
It wasn't Jordan... Rand al'Thor - 07/09/2009 04:36:11 AM 789 Views
It isn't but I thought BS said he wasn't trying to be exactly like RJ RugbyPlayingAshaman - 08/09/2009 08:12:24 PM 867 Views
The difference was a bit staggering scalius - 08/09/2009 08:23:15 PM 860 Views
