Further evidence that I am a Heartless Cur
| Robert Jordan, as many of you will know by now, is dead. Uncharitably, my first reaction was to laugh for about ten minutes. I guess that the "House Greyjoy" mantle is more appropriate than I first thought. My thoughts go out to his family and close friends, and to his loyal fans who purchased every one of his books in the hopes he'd decide to get to the point. I guess it's too late now. Rest in Peace.

Have your SayThe publisher made him outline the last of the series before he died as part of his contract. They are going to have a new author step in and finish his series. Won't be the same... but at least it will be done.
My first thought was about the unfinished series. I feel heartless too, but my God man, what is it? 11 books so far? The people who have read those have put in some time! They deserve some closure.
I don't think you're heartless for thinking of that first. For laughing, maybe. Hehehe. But not for leaping straight to that long, ponderous straggle of books leading right off a cliff.
Are you still alive, Bookie?! I hope so!
