Rest in Peace Robert Jordan

I really thought he was getting bette, maybe it was more wishful thinking than anything.

His Wheel of Time books are some of the most epic books I've ever read. Yes, they have irritated me at times, yes, some of the books have had problems - but they always pulled me back time and again and always manage to hold me. He will be missed.


The Light shine on you. The Creator shelter you and the last embrace of the Mother welcome you home.

Don't these things tend to happen in three's? Seems to me I've heard that and this would actually prove the theory! Pavarotti two weeks ago, that fellow (director) from here in the states last week, now this. *sigh* What the heck? *shakes head* I know what you mean about the books tho, there will be a HUGE hole where his shoes fit. :(

You left out l'Engle. That's four major talents gone in just a few weeks. Makes me Sad :

Who? The name does not quite hit with me. Who was this person, may I ask?

[tanarill.livejournal.com]

The person who wrote A Wrinkle in Time among many others.

It's very depressing news, he will be missed

I started reading the Wheel of Time books when I was pregnant. I used to joke about how if I was lucky he'd finish the series before the kiddo went to college (she just turned 15). Very sad that he passed. His stories and he will be greatly missed.

He was very slow about writing them :) But it is deeply sad that he never will again

May shade and sweet water be yours for eternity.

BTW: did he ever finish the wheel of time series??

[thisdaydreamer.livejournal.com]

No. He was writing the last book.

He left his notes with his wife, so I think she will be finishing it.

[sparkindarkness.livejournal.com]

sadly no, he's on the last book. But as thisdaydreamer said, his wife promised to finish Memory of Light if he died
